How many of you use Usenet VS torrents

Just wondering what a rough split is of people using either Usenet, torrents, or both?

I’ve only just discovered Usenet and while it is paid, it is very cheap and much more convenient than torrents.

Using torrents as well with the *arr suite set up for my various Linux ISOs.

Usenet provides you with very timely access to all the “newest” stuff, in excellent, very consistent quality.

So do some encoders and web-rippers.
And usually Usenet does lend quite a bit of releases you usually see on private indexers or some publics.

Right, that’s also true.
