Now until 12/31, 1/2 off your topups. They only do these sales one or twice a year. ---

You guys using grabit, do you pay the extra monthly fee for the search feature? It seems impossible to find anything without it. I am currently in a trial with [newshosting.com](http://newshosting.com). Anyone care to share an invite to newzbin? ---

> [@FourEyed](#): > > You guys using grabit, do you pay the extra monthly fee for the search feature? It seems impossible to find anything without it. That’s what newzbin is for. By far the best indexing site for newsgroups. I went with the 1 year topoff too. My luck they’ll probably get shut down next month but $12 isn’t going to kill me. ---

I don’t really see the need to turn this into a P2P vs newsgroups shitfest. To me the minimal price I pay for newgroups access and searching is well worth it for the speed, availability and security of never having to upload. I made this thread to share a deal for others who I know that are on nyspeed and feel the same way. I’ve got a 25meg down connection and it will peg it at 25 down for as long as I’m connected, all over SSL with nothing being uploaded. EDIT: FourEyed… you got PM. ---
