Check out agent forte. If you can connect to the internet you can post
and get anything you want.

Not exactly. The software can't connect to a news server if you haven't
subscribed to it. OP's ISP is ending its operation of a news server.
Forte also offers something they call "Agent Premium Usenet". When you
buy their newsreader you also get a trial account. I've not tried it
because I'm in love with Giganews but at USD 14.75/month for unlimited
access it looks like a good deal.

I use supernews at about 12 bucks a month. And it is really good.
