As for license and details those i correspond with online(guys like u people but outside the country)say this is a service that is part of the consumer's internet package jus like POP3(email), gopher and other wierd stuff u find you can do online if you try hard enough.as for making money your ISPs could charge for advertising space as well as charge those who provide binary NNTP services.It is a case of 'if u build it, they will come'. on a mo personal note most of the info i need is in text forms and exchanges like this LUG setup here.It might not be directly related to your usual LUG stuff but i can bet my lefthand that most(may be 87%) of the NNTP servers online are run in linux(atleast unix-like OSes. it would not be bad to run this LUG in newsgroup form also.
