Just wondering what a rough split is of people using either Usenet, torrents, or both?

I've only just discovered Usenet and while it is paid, it is very cheap and much more convenient than torrents.

Using torrents as well with the *arr suite set up for my various Linux ISOs.

Usenet for 30 years now. Torrent for 15 or so. Usenet primary source.

Usenet is fast and very convenient, but very little content in my language, so... Not sure will renew subscriptions when they expire.

Just torrents and I seed as much as possible. I knew about Usenet many years ago but, for whatever reasons, never really got into it. One day...
