He asked so I told, as broken said newzbin is worth it to many. Not any one site has it all, newzbin is just another tool in the bag and I for one beleive it is worth the pennies a day it costs.

I guess Astraweb is saving money to be able to do this by closing down their support. Or has the support always sucked? It's been soon over 1 week ago I sent my question to them.
There's a Swedish ISP (fiberlan) here that's always been cheapest. They hardly ever answer emails and it's hard to contact them by phone. They aren't exactly liked and first choice when selecting ISP. Astraweb seems to be like them, cheapest but crap support.

That line hasn't been true for many months now. Giganews needs to decrease their monthly prices to half of what of they charge now for Platinum accounts to even compete with Astraweb.
Seriously, there is absolutely no reason to use Giganews at this point. You're just throwing money away subscribing to them.
yea but theres still people out there who think b.c. giganews is 2-3 times as much as astra it must be better..."you get what you pay for"...which is crazy, ive used both and theres no diff between the 2 both just as stable and both maxed my speeds
also for those using astraweb they changed their server addresses...its on the news page check it out

Why should I have to spam them to make them answer? I hate to be forced to do that.
Ok, let's see if they bother to answer this time. My bet is they ignore me again. Btw, I'm not being rude or angry in my "tickets". It's a simple normal question about adding groups.
"You will receive a response to your problem within 24 hours during the periods when our support staff are available"
HA! Right. That's bullshit.
edit: What a response Astraweb! You merged my two tickets. Lol. Answer expected next year or so?

I just laugh when I read people type this. It's ignorance really. I've also used Giganews, and I see absolutely no difference between theirs and Astrawebs service. So in this case, this " you get what you pay for" excuse has me baffled. Considering you can get the same quality of service and more than half the price less.
