Talk:News client

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Newsgroup listing @ Geocities is no longer available.

[edit] Types of Clients

The classification of clients is now based only on support for binary attachments, which is wierd, as binary attachments are controversal. Users of traditional newsreaders will certainly find it an offense that their newsreader is put in the same category as poor combined mail and newsreader clients.

Ability to correctly parse threads, good kill files or scoring, making it easy to follow netiquette etc. are certainly more important for many usenet users.

Correct. In fact, the article as a whole (small as it is) makes it seem as if Usenet is primarily a warez network. I find that very hard to believe. JöG (talk) 22:04, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
