If you have the right setup, there is no need to burn
Yea, we were having this discussion at work today. Hands down usenet is safer. The only downside is that you have to pay for it.
Ferrari's would suck if they were free.
Correct me if I'm wrong.. but SSL doesn't matter when you're on trackersites, downloading .torrents is not even illegal. And once you're in utorrent or whatever you use, your ip is still visible.
It's too bad that usenet doesn't have much asian movies/dramas/music from what I've seen, anybody know anything about this?
Actually there is quite a bit of asian content on usenet, even a site dedicated to it: http://www.asianusenet.com/

Yah astraweb is pretty sweet.
+1 on Usenet being safer. Torrents aren't very secure. If one person jumps on the torrent they can see all the other IP addresses on that torrent. Alot of countries laws are against the uploading (distribution of the content), not the downloading (or at least the distribution penalty is alot more severe than the downloading one).
Not only use usenet more secure (especially if you enable SSL encryption and no one can tell what your downloading), you don't have to upload, which means you weren't distributing copyright content.
If you look at the court cases in the US its all P2P and reason the amounts are so large is because the RIAA/MPAA is saying the individual distributed using p2p.
You mean that asianusenet is not free? Well if it isn't. As long as you know the name of the shows or the names of artists for music that you are looking for you should be able to find them on many sites that index usenet posts.
You don't necesarily need nzbs to queue the files you need. You just need a search engine. I never use nzb sites. I just use usenet search engines. I use super search in Newsleecher or use the search engine in Easynews. There are others that are free that work great too. like newzleech.com or binsearch.info
