yer a compendium of useful info, nap
i'll have to ponder my next move...can't complain about paying a few bucks per month for unlimited content, just a question of where to put the $$'s...
hey one more dumb question: i'm not quite clear on how you establish multiple simultaneous connections on say, Newsleecher, for example...are you opening separate instances of the same program?
and btw, thanks to all for the info
