Paid services have consolidated to a great degree. But I’ve been a long time Easynews subscriber.
They have decent retention, good completion, and are johnny-on-the-spot re. DMCA requests.
Their real claim to fame is an easy to use browser based front end, so no third party client hassles and it works on mobile.
