Any Usenet-using niggers in here?

I started using it for my Plex server after constantly getting hit-and-runs on my private trackers due to retarded web-clients somehow forgetting to seed after a while, and I didn't want to face getting banned from another one. It's decent enough, but Hetzner seems to have an awful habit of slowing down during Usenet downloads (though from what I hear, this is because Hetzner's IP transit partner is well-known for overloading their transit lines). It's a nice resource tbh, not having to search far-and-wide for obscure media that might not have any seeds anywhere (especially since my dad asks me to download some old shit for my Plex server occasionally).

I used to, but Brighthouse/Spectrum stopped giving free usenet with service a couple of years ago.

I liked the buffet aspect of it, as opposed to looking for a particular movie, just going "oh hey here's a complete set of The Thin Man" or whatever.
 
What is a good way to rip Youtube videos into MP3s? I like down loading long streams and listening to them as podcasts, and the site I liked to use just got redirected somewhere suspicious.

I have Brighthouse/Spectrum as well and had no idea they used to offer free Usenet service.

I just end up paying for Newsgroup Ninja for my Usenet server.

They had a deal with soandso usenet provider some low retention (but unlimited bandwidth!) service. I don't remember exactly how I fell into it, but I found out about it from soandso's tech support page for Brighthouse customers. I don't think I ever talked to anybody at Brighthouse that had any clue what usenet was.

Anyone know where I can download Neil Breen films? Specifically I need Twisted Pair and Fateful Findings.

I have them. I can send you a Drive link. I downloaded them from a site that is no longer up, but I've watched them for movie nights, so I know they're alright. Send me a PM so I don't forget.
