No. There is no such thing.
To access alt.binaries groups, you have to have a real newsreader,
connected to a real newsserver. Google wants to protect you from
naked pictures.
Actually, google doesn't want to waste the space on binary newsgroups.
After all, they are an archive and any space used is forever (or until
they go broke, which of course is what happened with dejanews before it).
Hundreds of text messages can fit into the space of a binary post.
And of course, much of those binary messages are illegal copies of sofware,
movies, tv shows and music.
