    BT Broadband dropping Giganews

    Hidden Content Hidden Content

    What's the best options now for downloading free from newsgroups. BT will be getting dropped once my contract is up as Giganews was part of the reason I went with them.

    not much options berley, you can get free ones but they are slow and have poor retention. You could buy a block account say 50gb from a provider to save you having to pay a monthly subscription and just renew as you use up the 50gb.

    if you go looking yourself then make sure the block accounts arnt a monthly thing and instead keep alive until you've used the allotted amount.
