Usenet Explorer and occasionally sabnzbd
Is Usenet Explorer worth the yearly fee? Is it easy to use? How much retention does the search have?
Honestly? Hard to say. It's a solid newsreader, very lightweight with lots of options and almost completely bug free, it's portable, it doesn't have stupid and intrusive drm. The downside is really old school interface and it doesn't have sabnzbd's watch folder advanced functionality, just a more simplistic one
It is not user friendly but it does have a very thorough mini guide as well as a full guide available on the official site.
You don't have to pay yearly fee. When you pay first time you get to use for a year built-in search (I think its one of the best raw search engines out there tbh , the only drawback is that you cant set size filter but you can narrow down search using other methods) and a year of updates. After this year ends you can use this version indefinitely with exception of built-in search engine. Retention seems to be as high as all major providers offer or really close to it
You can give it a trial version a try.
Niouzefire isn't bad to use. I like the portable version. http://www.ideosi.fr/niouzefire_eng.php
Newsleecher for parsing headers and making nzbs; altbinz for leeching. One of these days I'll have to start playing with sab.
