Perhaps these people should outsource their NNTP server.
Comcast did the same (to giganews) and alot of comcast suscribers were not happy. 1 Gig per month, and downloading headers took away from that total. Anyone that could was dropping comcast and switching to verizon. Verizon has the best free servers around, and hopefully they wont drop it like Rogers did. But we all know what they are used for and IMO any provider is within their right to terminate that service.

Interesting. I used to pay for Usenet access until I found by snooping around that the server I was paying for and the one used by my ISP were one and the same, or at least, belonged to the same company. That day I cancelled my subscription and continued using the server provided by my ISP which has excellent retention and completion. My ISP outsources its NNTP server and happened to be the same provider I was using.

Perhaps these people should outsource their NNTP server.
