Re: Doesn't suprise me

The groups I use on Comcast are as close to real time as my emails are. Good enough for me.

I like using my current newsreader and it would be a PITA to switch to some other service when I pay Comcast a ton of money every month.

Yeah, they bought out dejanews a while back. It's OK, but the posts are not in real-time, they are greatly delayed.
There are a boatload of free providers out there. Also no post in USENET is realtime unless you are on the same server:p.
