Would it be suspicious to utilize the majority of a high tier residential connection 24/7 for years?

[UsenetServer.com](http://UsenetServer.com) is a good provider too. Been using them and they have a $3 for 3 day plan so you can hop on and get what you need to. If you sign up let me know, I will give you my referral code if you don’t mind.

Can I split this with someone and connect/sign in at the same time?

I would guess signons from different IP’s at the same time would get your account flagged pretty quick.

Found it…Looks like only one at a time:

> **ACCEPTABLE USE OF ACCOUNT**  
> All Personal accounts may be used for the subscribers personal use only. These accounts should be used by the owner of the account only, and there should only be one concurrent login session (up to eight connections from the same IP address) at any time. You may NOT use a personal account to feed a news server or news caching server. Any such use will be grounds for immediate account termination.

Just an FYI to those switching to newsgroups. I was having issues with HBO getting files taken down on [newshosting.com](http://newshosting.com). Basically, if you didn’t grab the files a day or so after their release, they were toast. nzbmatrix comments turned me onto Astraweb. Not a single problem since, and they are running a special right now for $11/month.

Highly recommend it

^ No shit, Astra isn’t complying with HBO’s takedown notices? Hasn’t been a problem for me on newshosting since I use sickbeard to auto-download shows but I still might switch to Astra.
