Hello all,

I’m a huge amateur when it comes to this stuff (I had a guy hold my hand on the phone and walk me through this) but I use Newsgroupdirect and buy blocks when they go on sale.

Is there a better group to do this from (or cheaper). I’m happy here but I saw an article that had some different places listed and it got me thinking.

Which group do you use?

    You’re not paying for the content, you’re paying for the server upkeep. I assume you don’t donate to people who rip your favourite albums/films either or to people who seed a lot.

    You could just physical if you wanted to not pay a few dollars to piracy services, but those will be more expensive

      This is a very, very questionable statement, we all know that people do profit from selling access to piracy.
