I’ve personally found that usenet isn’t that good unless you’re trying to grab things immediately. I find trying to grab older stuff really hit or miss, mostly miss.

Right, get a block account with another provider on a different backbone and you should be good to go!

Most indexers have a request form for content. Ive used the one on NZBGeek numeous times and gotten what I wanted within a day or two.
