My ISP (BT) is to give up giving us access to Usenet newsgroups from
3rd December so for now it looks like I won't be around here much
longer unless I find a cheap alternative binaries news server.

You are in luck, eternal-september carries _this_ binary news group.
(Not those other binary groups.)

Sign of the times?

You are late to the party, other ISPs did that years ago.

But I thought eternal-september didn't do binaries at all? Or is this
Ng an exception?

This NG is an exception.

If there are other exceptions, I don't know about them,
but there could be.

If you know of other binary groups that aren't full of
copyrighted stuff, ES might be willing to handle them if asked.


Thanks Dan, looks like I will be using E-S if only for this Ng.
I already use news.individual.net for non-binary (text only) Ngs (at
Euro10 per year) as they are superb at cutting out the rubbish.
