The one freelist group I am on has had it's share of problems.  Lots of
dropped messages and such.

I am on several yahoo groups and personally have no problems, but several
people have complained about constantly getting bounced and problems with
their ISP and yahoo groups playing well together.

You don't need to sign up with a yahoo group membership to join, send, and
receive messages from the group.  So no issues with the image or garbled
sound thing.  Although, if you don't have a yahoo group ID, you can't
download group files or view the archives, I believe.

So, in short, none of them are perfect.
