Best price I've ever seen for unlimited anywhere. I remember paying $29/mo for Giganews back in the day.

Would this be a good supplement for missing items on Astraweb?

Cubenet is a highwinds reseller. Not generally the best at preventing takedown, but it is at least a different backbone from astraweb.

Thanks! Been waiting for something like this to come along.

And I agree with Infotel. I had thecubenet years ago and things seemed to come down pretty quickly.

I've had the cubenet for years (March 2012) now and have been happy with them. Been paying $5.50/month so hopefully I can get this switched over. Thanks OP!

My internet is 200/200 so I usually get around 20MB/min.

I usually sign up for a year on UsenetBucket every Black Friday when they have 25% off. ~$27 a year for the basic fits my needs and budget.

I am having trouble understanding what Usenet is. What do you use it for?
