Question by austin: Who offers free usenet servers?

Best answer:

Answer by G
I don’t believe there are any that are totally free. Many have a free trial, but then will start to bill you when the trial is over.

Question by : How do usenet servers work? (please read details)?
I have used giganews with newsbin reader for a couple of months, and tried various search services.

One thing I don’t understand is how every single file I have found in search, I have been able to download. That is probably more that 1,5 TB of files. There are so many server providers that I expected a lot of files not to be accessible to me, in a search with no filter for server provider. I understand that Giganews might be the biggest provider, but this still seems very improbable. Can you explain this?

As a second question I am interested to know is how much data giganews has stored on their servers, and what the collective size of all unique files shared in newsgroups is.
I will write this again PLEASE READ THE DETAILS. I have specific questions, and I am not interested in general information about usenet.
Please DO NOT SIMPLY ADD LINKS that MIGHT have an answer. If you want to answer, please do so after reading the details.

Question by morenoh149: Where can I find free usenet servers, that serve binaries?
I can find plenty of news servers here: http://www.disenter.com/

But none seem to provide me with binary downloads.

Am I overlooking something or are all binary servers really for PAY?

Best answer:

Answer by CrownPC
I am not sure your purpose for binary but a good free p2p program called filecroc will allow you to search and retrieve about anything from the ARES Network which is very popular. Hope this helps and Happy New Year

@esgratis @darkejon you need a download manager with EasyNews OR HogWasher and ANY usenet service. Your ISP will have free news servers. – by designbias (Design:bias)
