: Version: 1.17: *** rec.music.info - List of Usenet Musical Newsgroups
: This fortnightly posted list of newsgroups is maintained by Dave Walker,
: who can be reached at marmo...@msen.com.: All comments, updates, new additions, etc. are more than welcome.
: If you do not know what newsgroups are, or how to read them, check out the
: introductory articles found in news.announce.newusers and news.answers, or
: ask somebody more experienced to help you.: By the way: many periodic or FAQ articles, including this one, are
: available for anonymous ftp on the archive site rtfm.mit.edu
: in the directory pub/usenet/news.answers. The name under which a FAQ is
: archived appears is the one that appears in the 'Archive-name' line at the
: top of the article. The FAQ you are now reading is archived as
: music/newsgroups.: If you can't do or don't know about ftp: there's also a mail server on that
: machine. Just send a e-mail message to mail-ser...@rtfm.mit.edu
: containing the word "help" in the body of the message.: USENET MUSICAL NEWSGROUPS
: At the moment there are over 125 newsgroups on Usenet that deal with some
: genre, or artist, or aspect of music. These groups can be divided into four
: categories: moderated rec.music groups, unmoderated rec.music groups, alt
: groups and 'other' groups. Groups in the 'alt' hierarchy are 'unofficial'
: in that they are not created by standard Usenet voting procedures.
: Therefore, some sites prefer not to carry (all) of the alt newsgroups.
: 'Other' groups are those groups that do not reside in the rec.music or alt
: hierarchy, but which nevertheless might be of interest, musically.: Here follows a brief description of each of these newsgroups. An '[FAQ]'
: behind the group name means that for this group a so-called Frequently
: Asked Questions article is maintained, which you really should read before
