How dare you compare usenet to ISP customer experience? lol

I hate most ISPs for sure. I’m stuck with my local monopoly.

But nonetheless my experience is still: pay $X, get constantly high bandwidth results. That’s all I mean.

Similarly, torrenting is all over the place. But if you pay good Usenet backbone and indexers, you get a similarly reliable product.

Definitely ISPs suck ass at everything besides taking your money and providing internet.
