Is Usenet always that expensive? Their recommended plan is $30 per month with a discount for the first three months. And the cheapest one is $10/month but that only gets you 20GB...
I'm not really a pirate so I don't know much about paid pirating services. But I'm pretty sure I could get Netflix and Disney+ for that kind of money. Is Usenet access really worth that much?
So you could get 2 streaming services which would make you miss out on the content available on the other 200+ other streaming services out there.
With Usenet you can get content from all of them.
Eweka is cheaper https://www.eweka.nl/en/landing/unlimited-usenet-special € 5,99/mo for a year
And here's a deal for easynews. https://signup.easynews.com/checkout/unlimited-special-deal/ $6 a month for a year
Haha, since Google searches are increasingly garbage, I asked Chat GPT about USENET and Eweka was one of the recommended providers :)
I use eweka and thundernews as backup. I rarely need thundernews. It only tries that one of eweka is missing what I'm looking for.
Black Friday deals bring discounts, as low as 45$ per year for some providers
