At PCZ's suggestion, I switched from Giganews to Newsdemon, due to
Giganews' growing list of issues and piss-poor customer service.
Am very satisfied with Newsdemon ... no issues, more complete database,
extensive retention, and costs less than Giganews. (Thrilled to get
drastically better service for less money.)
