    This blue sign, taking up real estate on my group's page, saying - no longer support new Usenet content, bla-bla!

    Hmm. Don't know. Never used Google Groups.

    No. I use a standalone client (Agent) and subscribe to a newsgroup
    service (Forte).

    It will go away in a few months. Then you get to spend $100 per year to have access to USENET.

    I spend $2.95 a month.

    You only need to pay if you want binaries.
