| ok...o i got logged into the news.netvigator.com (which is no username/ no passwrd) i am using unison....which seems ok. i am able to brosw easily thru videos and files and threads.... but how do i donwload a video? when i go to a file called "Gilligans Island episode 1" i click download and it downloads 10 RAR files (each 19Kb). obviously thats not enough for a whole episode...so.......how do i get the actual epsidoe? also...any recommendations for HD files? |

| i fund www.usenet.com offers 120K groups, and charges 18.95 for 10 connections and unlimited download / upload. is this good? will i then be able to find HDTV episodes (not the downscaled HDTV-rips that are 350mb)? |

Yeah, that's what I've been wondering for a looooong time too ! I occasionally look at HK.FORSALE to see what people are selling & sometimes input something I'd like to sell; but there are very few users there - not like 2 or 3 years ago when it was "buzzing" with adverts. It seems to have died - rather like the multiplicity of (students) Bulletin Boards of the mid 1990's - which were snuffed out when the network co-ordinator just quit without a word, and the networks unravelled instantly.... and I, as the [unpaid] Moderator of the HKNet Buy/Sell echo was out of a job! |
