A long time ago people were suggesting Frugal Usenet, so I got a subscription and have been very happy with it for a while.

A few months ago I’ve noticed that many files were incomplete, even ones that were about a month old.

I’m not sure if this is a common problem across different providers or if it’s isolated to Frugal.

My subscription to Frugal expired a week or so ago and I’m curious if there’s a better alternative for an affordable provider with good retention and SSL.
