It can be fun to run news servers - trust us, we know!

But news volume today is running 500+ mbits/second for over 5TB/day and 12M articles/day of news. Running your own infrastructure costs time, bandwidth, and capital.

By outsourcing, you can turn Usenet into a profit center and repurpose your hardware. In addition, we can provide free inbound bandwidth to you if you interconnect to us for news access!

We're your reliable, Wholesaler and ISP-friendly, and affordable option for Usenet outsourcing!

We can provide plans to match your business model, though most ISPs preferred to be billed per simultaneous connection ("port").

Our no-haggle maximum port price for ISPs is $7.50/month per 1 megabit/sec port! Discounts are available for term and volume commitments.

For Usenet wholesale accounts, we charge $.10/GB transferred or $15/mbit/sec 95th percentile.

Or, if you'd like we can also provide push feeds via the Internet or private interconnect and we can support you as you develop your own Usenet infrastructure with feeds, spool access, and consulting.

We're reliable, affordable, and clueful. We already provide service to dozens of ISPs and Usenet wholesallers, and have probably already implemented a solution just like the one that suits you best - RADIUS and/or IP and/or Database and/or LDAP authentication; SNMP, web, and email reporting; etc.

Basic outsourcing on a per-port or per-data transfer basis is our core business. For larger customers, we can also support news reading boxes in your network.

If you prefer to run your own article numbering and readers, we can provide back-end spool access (for retrieval by Message-ID) for reasonable per-port or per-gig fees.

The best way to do this is via private interconnect at Equinix/Ashburn, but we can also provide over the Internet. A full feed is 500 megabits/sec and would cost less than $7,000/month over the Internet, or less than $2,500 per month via private interconnect - however, we can also limit the feed however you like to meet a bandwidth target.

We can provide a text-only feed for $250/month via the Internet.

If you're just looking for more outbound article propagation/redundancy, there's no charge. Just contact support@readnews.com to get it set up!
