What is the best usenet service?

[Krk3561]

I want one that has unlimited downloads. Easynews only has 6GB a month. Is there any service just as good as Easynews w/ unlimited d/ls?

EDIT: Also, whats a good newsgroup program?

"Unlimited" here translates to 20GB a day, I've never had a problem

Retention is short, 2-3 days on the high traffic groups, 30+ days on some of the slower ones.

Using the server IP addresses and multiple connections I see speeds in the 10-12Mbps range.

As for a newsgroup program, I use Newsbin and have never had a problem with it.
