Up until 1998 or so when I sold MCSNet we actually had UUCP newsfeed

Interesting. "Most of them connected via IP" implies that some did not.
Who'da thunkit?

It is still viable for those who do not have "full time" Internet
connections (e.g. dialup over modems or ISDN)

Makes me wonder if there are any newsfeeds still being transferred via raw
UUCP (i.e. not over IP). Someone's probably doing it just for
nostalgia :-)
