Xsnews Review
Xsnews are based in the Netherlands, and offer a full range of premium Usenet services. Prices are in Euros, but a quick currency conversion shows them to be entirely competitive. They may be of most interest to people living in the Netherlands, but if you want english based service we are recommend one of their resellers Simply Usenet. No awards for innovation, but hats off to keen pricing and great localised service.
Binary Retention
Xsnews comes in with a decent 400 days of retention, this should be more than adequate to meet most peoples needs.
Pricing
Xsnews offer both single user accounts, and multi-user block accounts. These range from the basic single user account which is capped at 5Mbit speed, and costs a few Euros per month, all the way up to the large block account, which allows multiple users to share the account and download up to 500GB per month, for a whopping 99.95 Euros per month.
Xsnews Free Trial
Xsnews give an extremely generous 5 day trial account, so it is well worth signing up for, this should give plenty of time for prospective subscribers to test things fully.

Speed
Xsnews say they can server up to 128Mbit, which is quite a startling speed. Within the Netherlands, they should be hands down the fastest Usenet provider. Elsewhere in the world is unlikely to use this speed, although it is possible.
Security/Anonymity
Xsnews offer the usual free SSL over NNTP, nothing special here, almost every provider offers this these days.
Other Nice Features
200,000 plus newsgroups served so they offer a very extensive coverage.
Conclusion
If you live in the Netherlands, then give the free account a try, they could be just what you have been looking for. If you live outside of the Netherlands, then we can’t recommend them because their customer service in english is non-existent.
