If bowling videos WERE available on NEWSGROUPS, how many HERE would be able to download and burn or view them?

Because it is not a BINARIES group, a lot of servers(?) will AUTOMATICALLY block any large posts and the REGULAR users probably would NOT appreciate seeing large binary posts in THEIR group IF they did see them.

usually your isp has a server for usenet and thus you can aquire the very high transfer rates since nothing is really going over "the internet".  just traffic between you and the isp.
