Admittedly, if you're already using private torrent trackers, you'll probably find more missing releases by working towards joining higher tier trackers than usenet alone has. Usenet is more worthwhile for people without high enough bandwidth to build the ratio needed to join such trackers.
For me it's less about bandwidth and more about not having to worry about building/ maintaining ratio. It's just one less thing to think about.
I love seeding so I thought private trackers would be for me, but it's so hard to go positive when EVERYONE is trying to. Yeah, there is freeleach but then I was downloading a bunch of stuff that I didn't want, just for the sake of it.
Ahh this makes more sense to me now. The seedbox service i pay for has great bandwidth, and my personal bandwidth is enough to stream 4k content from it. So i kinda use my seedbox as a proxy instead
