Giganews.com -- 2GB/month for $7.99.

Teranews.com - 50MB per day for a $3.95 setup fee (slightly less than 2GB a month); 250MB/day (~7.3GB/month) for $7.95.

Thoughts? Which one is better, in terms of price, quality, overall value, and everything else?

THIS IS A PAIN IN MY ASS.

I have the NNTP/usenet hack installed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't.

No idea why Giganews isn't letting me post with my PAID account. It did before.

No idea why Teranews isn't posting. It did once when I was testing with Agent.

WTF!!!

Anyone know of any GOOD newservers?

Why would you need to download that much data over newsgroups anyway?
