The "official" failed RAID AIOE story doesn't hold much water. I'm thinking they were shut down, because everything went offline, web and all.

I use ES, and it just works, but the groups are limited though. I recently sprang for a NewsDemon account, and headers aren't updating properly there, and it's depressing to see just how many groups are straight up dead or full of spam.

I'm probably going to just close it out and stick with ES until that goes offline too.

I've got individual.net pretty cheap and does the job, not a lot of SPAM I
found in the feed (other than dead groups)
