How much is it? And do you use a VPN while connecting to it? Is it like a private torrent tracker?
I pay ~$10/mo for eweka(usenet provider) and nzbfinder.ws(usenet indexer). You do not need a VPN while connecting as long as you are using TLS when downloading. It's not really like a private tracker because it's not even torrenting. You're downloading direct from the usenet provider.
there are plenty of usenet services out there that are cheap in cost. frugal usenet is well regarded since it is, well, cheap and you get access to two usenet backbones with one sub. once you start down this rabbit hole most will have one main server and a backup for missing posts at times which is why frugal is a good value.
@esmazer @Eris http://old.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providers and https://old.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providerdeals is your friend.
Most use block deals from NewsgroupDirect or annually with frugal/newsdemon. NewsgroupDirect with Frugal will give you 5 backbones worth of access for not too much. Then you need an indexer like one here:

with sabnzbd, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, prowlarr, mylarr, readarr, overseerr, Plex media server and unRAID and you're set.
