Zen Internet Support Forum

hi, just wondering.. wouldn't it be worthwhile for zen to provide a premium news service for a fee ? (still keeping their free 7day service of course)

 

at the moment i use newshosting.com, mainly because zens completion/retention isnt very good (good enough for free though) 

now sureley zen have to pay extra transit costs to get my data from newshosting to zen, then to myself?

wouldnt it work out better for zen to charge a premium newsgroup fee, and supply a premium news service with at least 99% completion/45 day retention 

then with the data coming directly off their servers to me, they would save on extra transit cost? or would it still cost zen the same? 

I made a post simuler to this on adslguide's zen forum ages ago.

If i remember correctly people said that UK transit costs, the price of bandwidth is too expensive When compared with the US and such.

The only issue I have had is bad header completion - and a sprinkling of incompletes so I use EN - but for free, it's amazing. Well, free is relative - with the amount of stale sessions, if your not home your 'always on' experience is 1/3rd off.
