Review Of Newsdemon
NewsDemon is a premium usenet service provider, offering high-speed connections, excellent completion rate, free newsreader, free headers and free posting option. They offer the access to more than 107.000 newsgroups and they also say that there are many groups that have very little or no content at all so these groups are automatically excluded. If they don’t have some particular group their subscriber would like to see, all that needs to be done is to send e-mail to their technical support with request.
