I tried the paid NNTP with newsfeeds.com, but the performance and article population were terrible, not to mention they stick an ad in every article you post. Can anyone recommend a suitable, cheap/free, and reasonable NNTP server (no binaries, but full comp hierarchy would be nice)? Alternatively, can Gnus use Google News other than MID fetching?
