NewsDemon Block + VPN Access

October 1, 2013 by

NewsDemon is offering a new promotion that includes a 1000 GB block of Usenet access for just $35.  That’s a great deal on a large block of newsgroup downloads.  Those of you who wish to protect your online privacy can combine the block with a SlickVPN account.  NewsDemon is offering quarterly, six month and annual VPN.  Enjoy the 1 TB block plus a year of VPN for just $71.  Visit the NewsDemon VPN special page to sign up.

NewsDemon VPN Special

We’ve been using NewsDemon for years and highly recommend their Usenet service.  You’ll be hard pressed to find a faster, more reliable network than the one used by NewsDemon.  Their block accounts come with access to 1,873+ days of binary retention along with a free copy of News Rover newsreader and up to 50 connections.

NewsDemon has partnered with SlickVPN to offer their members the option of adding VPN service to their Usenet plan.  Those who just wish to download from newsgroups can rely on SSL to secure your connection.  SlickVPN helps protect your privacy while carrying on other activities online.  We use VPN at home and even more when traveling.  With a VPN router you can protect your home network with a single VPN account.

Here’s a summary of the NewsDemon / SlickVPN promotion:

  • 1000 GB block – $35
  • 1000 GB block + 3 months VPN – $47
  • 1000 GB block + 6 months VPN – $56

Which Usenet Provider Offers the Best Value?

August 13, 2013 by

We’re often asked our opinion on which Usenet providers offer the best value.  While it would be easy to point users to our Editors Choice list we always follow up first and ask for more information.  As our response would differ based on what the user is looking for in a Usenet service.  For pure Usenet we really like UNS and Astraweb.  Yet when it comes to the best Usenet value neither provider would be at the top of our list.

For us the question of who offers the best Usenet value goes beyond newsgroup access.  That wasn’t always the case but now some leading providers are offering bundled services (newsreaders, Usenet search, online storage, VPN, etc.) along with unlimited Usenet access for less than $10 a month.  While we highly recommend both UNS and Astraweb these other services offer more value-added features along with newsgroup access.

Best Usenet value

Let’s take a look at some of the best Usenet values and the free add-on features offered by each provider.

Newshosting : Unlimited Usenet + Newsreader + Usenet Search

Newshosting Specials

Newshosting is our pick for the best Usenet value.  Along with unlimited Usenet access they offer members a great newsreader (Windows, Mac, Linux) and Usenet search engine.  Not to mention high retention, free SSL and excellent performance.  All for just $9.99 a month or $99 a year.  Unlimited Usenet along with a newsreader and built-in search engine for $9.99 is quite a value!

NewsDemon : Unlimited Usenet + Newsreader + Online Storage

Demon Deal

NewsDemon is another outstanding Usenet value.  Offering members unlimited Usenet access, a free copy of News Rover and unlimited online storage.  Along with high retention, free SSL and excellent performance.  All for just $9.99 a month.  Unlimited Usenet downloads along with News Rover newsreader and free online storage is an amazing value for just $9.99 a month!

Newshosting and NewsDemon top our list of the best Usenet values.  With each offering unlimited Usenet and excellent add-on features for less than $10 a month. Some other good Usenet values include Easynews (Usenet + web interface for $9.98 a month), ThunderNews (Usenet + newsreader for $10.49 a month) and Ngroups (Usenet + storage + VPN for $9.99 a month).

Usenet Celebrates 1,400 Days Binary Retention

June 15, 2012 by

This week several of our favorite Usenet providers are crossing 1,400 days of binary retention.  As services including UseNetServer, Newshosting, NewsDemon and Astraweb cross 1,400 days and continue to grow daily.  We celebrate the continued increase of retention and other innovations helping Usenet grow.  Just a few years ago we were discussing retention in terms of days.  Now we’re nearing four years of binary retention!

Usenet fans now have access to over three and a half years of binary newsgroup posts.  At 1,400 days you can access newsgroup posts from 3 years and 10 months ago.  As 1,400 days ago was August of 2008.  Back then the highest retention to be found was 240 days, which works out to around 8 months.  Now we can all explore over 46 months of Usenet posts for a fraction of the 2008 price of newsgroup access.

The quality and value offered by Usenet providers has also progressed since 2008.  Back then services offered unlimited Usenet for $20-$30 a month.  Fast forward to 2012 and the price is half that much.  Not only has the price dropped significantly.  Users now enjoy free extras.  Including faster speeds and additional features like newsreaders, Usenet search and online storage.  All for under $10 a month.

We look forward to celebrating again in 100 days as Usenet hits 1,500 days of binary retention.  Surpassing 4 years of retention in the meantime.  Until then continue enjoying the best Usenet has to offer.  Visit Newsgroup Reviews to learn more about Usenet. Follow us @NewsgroupRevs for the latest offers.

Just How Much Usenet Does $10 Buy?

May 25, 2012 by

We recently joined in on a forum discussion in regards to the current price of Usenet accounts.  As many top newsgroup services offer unlimited access for around $10 to $12 a month.  You still have services like Easynews and Giganews that offer premium plans in the $30 range but most providers have settled in around $10 to $12. A price point that excites a lot of Usenet fans.  Just how much Usenet does $10 buy these days?

If you haven’t shopped for Usenet in awhile you’ll be happily surprised by the current pricing and innovations.  For $10 a month you’ll find fast, reliable access.  Better yet you’ll find high retention and unlimited downloads for that price.  Along with a number of free extras like newsreaders, Usenet search and online storage.

We’ll highlight a few of our favorite deals in a moment but we also encourage you to visit our Usenet providers section where you can compare over 100 newsgroup services.  While not all are created equal you’ll find  a number of fine options to choose from.  Along with reviews and guides to help you get started.
