   That may be the case for commercial usenet. For free usenet, few or no   
   "binary" 'groups are carried. (I think the same applies to "cheap"   
   usenet too, but that's not going to continue for much longer, unless   
   something has popped up to replace "the Berlin Server" that I don't know   
   about.)
