Free NNTP servers?

    Using UTV's NNTP server you only get a couple of hundred Microsoft groups and a few utv ones. Are there any decent free servers with feckloads of groups? Search on google turns up loads of them, but they're mostly small and/or orientated to one subject.

    Cheers...

    Probably better to just mail them and ask them to host more groups.

    They won't. They claim the cost is too much to get a usenet feed in for a small minority of users.

    The utv.support group actually mentions a few public access news servers.
