Lost usenet access

Hey all.

Since i moved i lost my nice Comcast cable modem with giganews. The satillite hookup i have does not come with access to any of them. I was wondering if there are any deals out? and what is a good server?

cheaper the better!

I've been using Easynews for about 3-4 years now with no problems.

Easynews seconded. they are fast and reliable. i think it's $9.95/month for 10 GB download now. and to top it off, starting from next month you can rollover your quota

i have to add though that their retention seems to be declining lately. used to be about 40 days for binaries, now it's lucky if i got 25 days back from NNTP (web access has better retention, so usually i found what i want there).
