There are lots of benefits to usenet, I do agree. Just more of a hassle to me :P It seems I'm a person who likes to take the hard route even though there's gigantic signs saying "HEY OVER HERE, TAKE THE EASY ROUTE".
I'm a bit ignorant to the world of N/G but I've always been keeping in with private sites (torrents) and staying away from public stuff.
But, the internet just isn't what it used to be for me anymore.... I'm losing interest in it majorly

Unfortunately, I'm also losing interest in a lot of things I like/love..
