National broadband
leader Internode is now providing its customers with free access to Australia’s most
comprehensive premium Usenet service.
Usenet is a globally
decentralised discussion and file-sharing system that allows users to read and
post public messages and files to newsgroups. The world’s most popular Usenet
services include Giganews, Astraweb and Supernews.
Due to a recent
acquisition, Supernews has morphed into Giganews, resulting in much longer
retention of binary articles. Internode has also added Astraweb Usenet to its
network at no additional cost, providing an alternative Usenet service to Giganews.
By offering the
'Premium Usenet' service in Australia
on a cost-included basis, Internode allows its customers to subscribe to a
Usenet service without having to establish a separate Usenet account with a US
company. The only download limit is the one that exists on their Internode
broadband plan.
Internode managing
director Simon Hackett said Internode was providing its customers with free
access to one of the great information resources on the Internet. ”With Internode
now giving its customers the choice to access Giganews or Astraweb – or both! –
it’s a much better service at no extra cost,” he said.

technology to redefine the national telecommunications environment. The Australian-owned
company is a trailblazer that delivers broadband services to individuals and
