I'll be posting Metropolis either Friday Feb.22 or Monday Feb.25.

It's a high quality subtitled DivX (699MB) that I got off of WinMX.

I have to wait until Friday or Monday because that's approx. when my Easynews account will be activated(I signed up through snail mail) and don't think it's worth it to try posting through the slowly dying @home servers or the new and still crappy Rogers server. Rogers has excellent completion but only six hours retention. Doesn't look like they'll have the three day retention they promised.

Anyway, enough of my Rogers ranting. I will post Metropolis as soon as I can, most likely over a three day period.

I forgot to add something. I will be posting it in yEnc. More than enough has been said about yEnc already so I will just say this: all whiners and all bitching will be ignored. If you don't want to use a yEnc compatible newsreader(which is easy!) then that's your problem.

The following quotes were taken from another newsgroup by two different people:

"remember, those afraid of new things do NOT belong on the Internet..."

"Xnews may not be for everybody, but neither is agent"!

Likewise newspro, newsbin, Gravity etc. Also I noticed that they have support for some flavours of linux, *nix and Mac's now.

Anyhow, that Metropolis post...AVI?...labelled InsidiousDivX?

Yeah, that's the one. Very good quality. I'm currently converting it to SVCD for myself.

I'd post the SVCD instead but I have a feeling most would rather have the original DivX. Plus the DivX is smaller anyway(less for me to post) and people can do whatever they want with it.

If you're posting via Easynews, I think there are a few servers you can use, if you don't know already: news.easynews.com, news-01.easynews.com and post.easynews.com. Sometimes one or more of the servers has a problem of not ACKing posts, causing PP2K to timeout.
