Unison itself is pay-once. Your newsgroup service may or may not be pay-per-month. Some ISPs provide it with their service, but filter binary service. That might be why you're not getting results, GFoLife. You'll have to find a newsgroups service that allows binaries, which usually involves a cost (because of the cost of bandwidth)

Who is your ISP? Like timdorr mentioned, some ISPs will block binary newsgroups. I had Verizon DSL for about 4 years and I must say they probably have the best newsserver for an ISP. No download caps and they do not filter out the binary newsgroups. Now I have Earthlink which has a 5GB cap per 30 day for each email account I have, which isn't too bad because if I go over the download cap, I just switch the news reader to use another email acount and I am good for another 5GB.
