Default [OT] BT Accesss to Newsgroups Ending

BT sent me an email saying it is ending its access to Newsgroups as
part of its subscription.

I know people access uk.sci.weather via a third party subscription.
What's the cheapest?!!

I don't want to use Google Groups.


There are some free outfits, such as Eternal September. Personally, I
use the admirable news.individual.net (aka NIN). For a modest 10 euros a
year (IIRC) it provides an excellent service, in particular being
excellent at filtering out spam. Go to http://news.individual.net/ for
more info.
