If this was just a P2P or torrent thing, I would agree to an extent. But since no one owns the newsgroups, there is absolutely NO WAY to stop this practice. So why bother wasting promoting Reality Kings when any user can go download a terabyte of their content for $18 a month?

I see your point. The newsgroup are another thing...no doubt about it.
However, since they ask money for the service, it means there is a Cie beyond it. They pay taxes, must obide by the laws of their country. In my view, easier to negotiate with, then a guy in it's basement. I am just saying...rules are made to be changed, even the newsgroup. That might be utopic on my part, but you must start somewhere...If you don't, you will them do everything they want to do, at the detriment of your pockets.
There is no perfect solution, so, let's not try to find one. Rather find a compromise that will let everyone have their share of the cake.
