So i have always wondered how usenet works?

In some pre release databases i have seen download links which redirect to usenet.

I know that we have to pay for a monthly subscription, but how does their system work? is it like a p2p network?

and please dont tell me to google or check wikipedia.

Another thing is that, if usenet does have releases, then are these releases fast enough? i.e the pre times.

thanks
