There is no debate that Easynews was one of the pioneers of the Usenet scene. Operating since 1994, Easynes provides Usenet solely for the US and have 150-180 days of binary retention depending on the plan. The three main plans range between $9.98 to $29.94. Support is available either by phone toll-free or by email.
Features
100 day retention with caps between 20-150 GB per month depending on the plan. Servers are US based. They also offer a Web channel for newsgroup browsing and downloading. Phone and email support is excellent and an average speed for service. Member referral credits are also available.
Support
Easynews offers two forms of support - either email or by a toll free number. The site is limited in information on original content to get you up and running, but offer links to other sites to help assist as well.
Conclusion
Easynews is one of the Grandpas of the internet. How can you not like em? Although price plans and features are not up to date to current industry standards, there is piece of mind trusting a company that has solid roots in the Usenet world rather than a start-up that might disappear tomorrow. Full bandwidth may not be reached, but they do deliver the full 100 day binary retention they promise. There is a lot of competition in the Usenet market right now, and Easynews biggest vision should be a bit more competitive on both its price plans and caps. We would love to include them in the top 5, but due to these facotrs, it prevents this reputable and large Usenet provider from reaching the peaks assuredly it can achieve.
