i dont know if there actually free newsgroups, sort of defeats the point really. it would cost them so much money..ads couldnt even cover it. anyway theres loads but make sure you dont talk to much specifically about them, its a delicate situation (piracy) in forums.

Use your isp's news server. You're already paying for it. And for free, xnews is a good reader.

Is that a US thing? never found a UK isp with news, AOL used to but removed it.

TBH i prefer an independent, specially considering the nature of usage

When I was in college we had access to newsgroups, but then again that was my school and I graduated 10 years ago. Hell newsgroups were the priamary form of web content when I started college.
