I use a similar setup myself, though also make use of a Newsdemon block plan as a secondary usenet provider for any files Eweka doesn't have. Since the two providers are on different nodes and in different copyright jurisdictions (Eweka implements NTD requests while Newsdemon implements DMCA requests), Newsdemon can often finish releases that Eweka is missing a portion of. Since Newsdemon is only useful on the off-chance that Eweka can't finish a download, getting a one-time purchase block plan for it avoids needing to have another ongoing subscription.
On the off-chance that both fail (has yet to happen to me after switching to Eweka) and you don't mind also using torrents, I'd suggest joining TorrentLeech as another source for many such releases.
