2 years unlimited usenet access + VPN $46

Initial deal from newsgroupninja, price-matched by newsdemon. Both are on the same backbone (Highwinds) with 3900+ days retention.

I would go with newsdemon as they are the smaller company. Only Demon comes with the VPN. Newsdemon are price-matching at a loss so their offer might not last long.

Newsdemon will 'pause' your account if you're already on an existing plan. I don't know if ninja will, don't have time to check.

I presume you can cancel the re-occurring payment?

Yes, you can do it by logging into your account or by notifying them.

If you pay with Paypal you also prevent any removal of further funds by deleting the entry in the "pre-approved payments" section of your account. You'd want to cancel it officially as well just to be on the right side of things contractually.

I use https://nzbgeek.info/ $12 for the year. No complaints so far.

Also look into Radarr and Sonarr for an easier life!! Or it may just confuse you more

I used to use these years ago - Around 2010 maybe? I cannot quite recall why I ditched the Newsgroups but was there some spate of a crackdown/take-down orders or something?

From what I remember they were excellent with access to tonnes of high res movies etc. - This the case right now?

Maybe could some decent person please write a 2 line synopsis of the benefits and drawbacks here?!

Tks
