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.

According to my bank account:

Eweka runs about $16 USD a month (I also pay for the VPN), and NZBGeek runs about $12 USD a year.
