Have you considered that there are a number of PVR services out there that have designed and implemented solutions to distributing guide data?  What does Tivo do?  ReplayTV?  Sage? EyeTV?  Some of these companies must employ clever people.  I don't know what they've done but someone does.  Why don't wefind out and stand on their shoulders?  Somehow, I doubt NNTP is a part of their solution.

I used net news back in the day.  My memories are of out-of-order messages, replies to messages that never-ever came through, and other general annoyances.
