Ok smartboy, answer me this then.
You have one newsgroup that the public at large can have total, free access
to. You have a single account with a usenet service.
Ten days after you go online, suddenly it stops working.
Why? So the provider says, "Excessive bandwidth" and a number of other
reasons.
You dicker back and forth and come to find out they won't continue the
service because you are abusing the account TOS. So how do you rectify the
problem?
Pay some big bucks for a proper newsfeed and you'll be back in business.
