out they had a tie up with Giganews which is finishing, and suggesting we
all migrate to Giganews directly (from US$4.99 to US$29.99 per month!).
Makes News.individual.net look cheap.
But still more expensive than Eternal September
news.eternal-september.org
Yes but NIN is only Euro10 per year. My problem is I do look/post on a
binary Ng too and both NIN and ES don't do binaries.

The problem with Eternal September is that it is well known as the home of
trolls (presumably because it's free?) and some people killfile the whole
domain.
I used to look at a binary group too, but I gave it up to have NIN. Which
is worth every single euro, believe me.
I see no spam on newsgroups. No anti-Jew posts, no buy my xxx, nothing
because NIN filter it out before I see it and that's worth 10 euros a year
itself.
I leave it up to you.
It's a no-brainer.
