What news groups would you recommend? -----Original Message----- From: orb-admin@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:orb-admin@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of skinner_matt@hotmail.com Sent: 08 February 2003 01:26 To: orb@mailman.xmission.com Subject: Re: [Orb] P2P warning I've always thought those Peer 2 Peer progs are inherently flawed anyway due to the other person's download speed being capped by the ISP i.e. you might have 1mb down but it's only 256 up etc. Newsgroups are always far, far superior in terms of downloads but you're always erm restricted to what is posted to them.....plus your ISP's retention rate....and when your ISP does things like stop carrying DVD newsgroups or repost groups like NTL did recently...Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. But then that's what you have subscription News services for I guess. *goes back to bed*. _______________________________________________ Orb mailing list Orb@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orb
