Just have to wait until Vidiot posts it on usenet.
I rely on him way too much
I've always wondered oh what usenet these episodes are posted on. Also, what I don't understand....is that bandwidth is a HUGE issue with these things, how can a company seriously allow people to post 200MB files on their usenets and distribute them for free? It sounds too good to be true...I don't understand it.
It depennds. A lot of isps won't carry binaries, but then some do. I have Cox, and they're pretty good as far as newgroups go. But then some people use pay services like easynews which is 10 bucks a month.
I'm guessing the reason isps do it is they figure they can charge more for having extra services, and I guess that someone justifies the cost of running them.
But yeah, there's terrabytes of data they've gotta be constantly serving and purging but I'm betting it's all automatic and the major isps don't even bother checking what's on it. You have to figure by the time they verify a bunch of files are warez/movies they'll be purged anyways and new stuff will be comming in. Or maybe they figure they can make more money by being file sharing friendly.
I'm not gonna ask any questions about it, b/c right now things are good and I'd like to keep them that way :]
