    The link should be fine. It was in a thread Sprung made about using newsgroups a long time back.

    Also Astaroth, you need your Blueyonder email and password to set up the newsgroup. I remember you saying you didn't know yours....

    Jack, maybe you could clear something up for me that I've just sort of realised.

    Back when I used Usenet, Sprung and I would post links to newzbin all the time. Now, I never knew why we were allowed, I just assumed we could because it was pretty much a 'specialist' thing. Like, you had to be 'in the know' to use it.

    Well I just realised that torrents are sort of like that, so why can't we post links to torrent sites with bad thingz? I understand that torrents are much more widely used and commercialised, but the same principle should apply, no?

    Newsgroups are the shit. You will get the full download speed of your connection pretty much all the time.
