| Why Choose NewsRazor? |
 Usenet providers rely on three metrics of performance: Completion, Retention and Speed. Completion measures the amount of information available on a Usenet provider comparatively to what exists on the entire Usenet. This can be expressed as "how much information is available." NewsRazor, for example, carries over 107,000+ newsgroups, containing over 99% of all articles posted worldwide! Retention reflects the Usenet provider's ability to archive information in these newsgroups. Retention is expressed as "how long information is available." NewsRazor currently offers 900+ days of binary retention and up to 1400+ days of text retention on all of our newsgroups! Speed is the most self explanatory of Usenet metrics. This is expressed as "how quickly information is downloadable." NewsRazor does not cap, throttle or limit connections to our service -- providing the fastest possible transfer speeds! Note: Please be advised that the speed of your download depends on several conditions, including the speed of your connection to your ISP, latency and congestion of infrastructure between you and our servers. We recommend you try out our Speed Test to see the blazing fast speeds you can receive from our service! |
