I need help finding free newsgroups. My sbcglobal account offers them but no binaries or any kinda files or mp3. So any that are free that i can connect to would be good =)

As far as newsgroups go, SBC Global sucks. I have access to 36'340 newsgroups. When I helped a friend on SBC Global to use them, his server list only contained a fraction of that. So, what sort of newsgroups are you looking for?
