Pretty much everyone that knows about usenet knows about Easynews. They are one one of the top usenet providers available. With excellent completion, retention and speed they are a great pick for a provider.
Multipart binary completion is a nice 97%, singlepart binary completion is 100%. Binary retention is at a healthy 23 days, text retention is around 60 days.
Text retention has again gone down since their last review, and binary retention has gone up. Easynews lost a few minor points on binary completion, they seem to have slipped slightly in this area since their last review.
