You can live anywhere you want.... if you have a credit card, you might be able to use giganews
BTW... you might download a lot of things from torrent (for free) but there is also a lot of stuff that is not published outside usenet, or is published on private torrent sites
BluRays and HDDVDs coded in x264 have never been so easily downloaded than from usenet..
usenet is the best kept secret from the net, that's why many ppl say "stay away from usenet", "don't touch my usenet", or simply "hush" ...you might wanna wonder why
