I 've been using it for quite some time. It's about $13/year. |

I've got sorta the opposite issue. I've been reading and posting through the web for a while. I've been putting up with Google.s problems. I originally did that because I traveled for work and I never knew what this week's network would block. Now that I no longer travel, somewhere along the way I have decided I want a web based reader. If some NSP offers a web-based service with killfiles and the usual set of features expected of a real newsreader I will be happy to pay for that service. But my ISP does offer NNTP and I've set up my reader at home to point to several servers but I almost never use it. |

Try news.individual.net cheap and good. there are others free but I don't know how good. |

Some things are just better left alone. Usenet is one of them. I don't do web based groups, and yes, I'm an old fart, too. -- Zilbandy |
