all the releases that eventually become torrents (unless private/ single user) get put onto newsgroups and onto file hosting mirrors. the release sites post the links of these file hosting mirrors.

where i can see newsgroups excel at is if they put up ftp links for you to download from

i just don't feel like paying for it if it means i get it an hour later, or even a day later (depending on file size and how the file is split up)

i frequent rlslog (down at the moment), irfree, and hd-bb

it's free so... u've got nothing to lose for trying it and comparing
