 I'm not a techie, either; just sayin' that fewer people are posting
 because their posts are deleted by Usenet providers because of legal
 requests from DMCA lawyers, so they don't bother to make the effort to
 post much anymore. You can check with some of the NZB download sites
 like NZBGrabit to get some files which are encoded with the 'alphabet
 soup' filenames; free for the previous ten days, and a nominal
 membership fee to download NZB's for much further back. But I think
 the days of current programming showing up on Usenet as they have for
 quite some time are on the wane.
