Anyone favor a news service provider over another?  When AT&T killed 
their service I picked up the $3 plan from Giga, but I didn't really 
shop around much.

I use mostly text groups, but have a "binary day" once a month or so 
when I get bored.  The idea of re-upping by advancing to the next 
billing cycle at GN sounded best for that, but now I see that Astraweb 
has something similar that doesn't expire like GN does.

Experiences with either?  Other hosts?  Anyone local, perchance?
