Re: Whats the best NZB site?
There is no *best* NZB site. All have their strengths and weaknesses. To find rare material, I often need to employ several NZB sites and search engines until I find what I need. (and often torrent, Ed2K, rapidshare, etc sites as well)
Binsearch is a lot better now that they've recently doubled retention, but I've noticed that a lot of stuff is missing in the 300-600 day range compared to other sites like nzbs.org and nzbclub. I suspect that when Binsearch recently pulled the 300-600 day headers (presumably from Giganews) a lot of the files had already been removed [per DMCA takedown] as they sat on Giganews servers for nearly a year. Those same files missing from Binsearch were present on other long-retention search engines like NZBclub and other (non-Giganews/non-Highwinds) usenet providers.
Re: Whats the best NZB site?
I've been using this site as a primary instance for my downloads, and use merlins when looking for something quite old. Haven't had the need to use any other so far. (besides NZBindex.nl for manual searches).
Re: Whats the best NZB site?
How can you say that sites like NZBMatrix don't do more than binsearch or NZB(dot)org ?
When something is uploaded in files names X45679MKKL.rar, you won't find them with those sites but you will on NZBMatrix because the name of the actual content is referenced.
This mostly concerns movies (DVD).

I do the same thing, this site is great for most things 0day, between this site and Merlins and nzbindex I get most of what I need.
But I do have some specialty sites for full BD's.

In order for it (X45679MKKL.rar) to have got on matrix, someone would have had to have found it on one of the auto-indexers, supersearch or raw headers, then downloaded it, and then uploaded the nzb to matrix with a description.
Not only is it rare that the file would show up on any search of an auto indexer, it would be unlikely that someone would download it just with the aim of discovering what it is.
I'd guess that those vaguely named files are incredibly rare on matrix.
Re: Whats the best NZB site?
Well, I was looking for The Pacific and no passworded upload, went to nzbmatrix to get it.
Had 2 passworded download from binsearch before that :)

It's only because a member of Matrix is a member of the "origianl uploaders site" and knew the "file names and/or password" to go along with it, and in NZBMatrix rules it says you can't take NZBs from there site and upload elsewhere, but you can take NZB's from other sites and upload to "theres" please by all means... :yup: I mean isn't that what most of these so "called" NZB index sites do...you can say look at Matrix index and then go to some sites (not NZBsRus or NZBs.org/B4E/Usenet4all) and see post by post match of the same exact file....hell there is this private NZB site I know where the front page looks like Matrix's front page and I'm thinking ffs, come on now, why upload there shit, who knows if it's passworded or what it says it is. :lol: :fst:
