Dec. 15 my ISP (Rogers in Canada) will discontinue its Usenet service.
Are there free usenet servers available ? Or is there other way to get
access to usenet groups, eg. this one ?
Thanks

I've been using AIOE for several months now. I'd guess they have about a
90 - 95% "good" access record over a typical month. No binaries though...

And don't forget to let them know why you are changing ,,, after
you've left of course.

One site which is quite good at finding free/opn nntp/usenet access is:
http://NewzBot.com

Another is:
http://www.newsservers.net

A newsgroup to find free/open nntp/usenet access is available @:
This does get a lot of spam/OT posts :(

You'll find a good few read only free/open nntp/usenet access servers. The
trick is to find one that allows posting also (if required).

If all else fails you can subscribe to a provider eg:
http://OctaNews.com
but, these you pay for, eg: monthly.
