hey guys,
I am totally new to this forum and to Usenet so sorry if I ask some simple and stupid questions, please don't be too harsh on me :)
anyways...
I have a MacBook. I decided to try out Usenet because I heard some cool things about it.
First, I looked around and tried to find the best Usenet client for Mac, since NewsLeecher is only Windows based, and came across Unison. Here's my first question, what are your suggestions as far as the Mac Usenet clients go? Are there better ones than Unison?
Second, I signed up for 1 month Unlimited service at Newshosting.com. What do you guys think about that? Is it a good service?
Now, I setup Unison with the Newshosting, works nice and fast. What I am trying to do is to find some music, movie, and tv shows that I want to download. I looked in few binary groups but couldn't find anything that I needed, some bogus stuff would seem to come up. So here's my main concern, am I using the Usenet incorrectly? Or am I looking in the wrong places? Because I can't seem to find anything. Could you please point me in the right direction?
For example, I'd like to download Episode 2 of Kitchen Nightmares which just came out 2 days ago or so. Where and how can I find it? Please help!
Thank you guys in advance, I'd really appreciate some hints and tips on how to work Usenet and be able to find files I want on it.
