I don't care if it's more useful for you, it's not good for the ISPs.
Depending on the definition of "not good". If you lose clients because you don't have a news server, then having one is good.
They would lose whom? You and your couple of buddies? I don't think they'll care.
11,000,000 messages a DAY in *current* NetNews traffic is not "me and a couple of buddies". The "three of us" aren't generating that much daily traffic all on our own. Clearly there are a lot more than three NetNews users, and I was under the impression that companies ignored huge markets at their peril.
