Title says it. Is anyone still on the newsgroups? For reasons I need to amass a large collection of music in MP3 format, preferably full albums, and I'd like to do it somewhat quickly. Is there a better place to hunt before I buy news server access? I been on land for too many years.

BlockNews or Usenet.farm seem like they could be good fits for your set up. Since you can already get what you want, it may be worth it to wait until Black Friday sales.

Thanks for the suggestions. I shall keep an eye out for those during the Black Friday sales.
