I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
Hey,
Just purchased access from Astraweb, the price is cheap enough for me to consider using Newsgroups now.
I don't know much about newsgroups but I just installed GrabIt and I'm downloading stuff right now without problem
However, I was wondering if there's really a major advantage to have a pay site like newzbin to find content easily?
I found a post in here with a list of free sites and some looks nice to get movies and TV NZB.
What does it offer, better search options, more nzb?
Thx :)
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
I tried it once a while back and wanted my dollar back. There is nothing there you can't easily find elsewhere. I know some people use it b/c they can save searches or create bookmarks, but I don't have a need for any of those "perks".
http://newzleech.com/ is my best friend for finding NZBs. It's going to have 99.999% of anything you're looking for. On the rarest of occasions that you think something is out there but you don't see it, you can also try http://binsearch.info/.
My first stop for NZBs is usually FST though. :happy:
Also, I suggest ditching Grabit and trying Alt.Binz. It has far more options. You can grab the latest version off of Usenet.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
That's what I thought, I'm already paying for Usenet so why pay for a search engine.
I like the subcategories added by rossco in the NZB index , think it wasn't there in the past.
Getting max speed on old release is so nice :smilie4:
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
Use Newsleecher, it's in the NZB section (i upped it) it has fully working super-search (search and it will find, no need to visit search engines :) ), also, it has auto repair and extract and many other great features.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
Yeah, the auto unRAR and auto repair of Alt.Binz and Newsleecher is a big one-up on Grabit.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
I installed Alt.binz and I like it, the design and functionality.
I see it can auto-pause par files, I didn't find a way with Grabit, that's nice.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
Newsleecher is so much better..at least for the added supersearch.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
But you have to pay for it right?
I got a copy (that was my first choice) but the license isn't working

You can use Supersearch in Alt.Binz.
True story.
Re: I (finally) made the switch to Newsgroups
Where did you grab it from? My post in the NZB section if so, it's working for everybody else. I've been using it forever.
