    You don't need to try and break it all down for me. I've had a Newzbin subscription; I know what it is and how it works.

    Yes, there may be 5-50 reports of a specific file, but that's usenet, it's just being indexed by them as any other indexing service should do.

    Newzbin sorts files as much as possible, 720p, 1080p, the source of the rip, DVD, telecine, Blu-ray, etc. as well as the current format of the file in an easy to search and sort setup.
    I have never ever had the need the need have my files broken down like that. If I'm looking for a file, I search for it, being as specific as possible, just like I would search for something on Google. Last night I wanted to download the newest Dexter, so I went to a search engine and found it quite simply. And for free. And faster. I just don't see the "very big mess".

    How is it "unbeatable". Are there any NZB search engines that don't offer RSS? I've used Newzbin in the past and found it to be shit. I've used SABnzbd in the past and found it's interface to be shit. But amazingly enough, without using either of those I am still able to use Usenet, with preset RSS feeds to download, repair, and extract anything I want without having to press a button. It really isn't anything new or unique.

    I never said there was anything wrong with the service other than it's a pay service. If it were 100% free I would likely have a a bookmark for it next to my MerlinsPortal bookmark as something to fall back on.

    As it is, I am able to find every single file available on Usenet that a user can find on Newzbin, only I do it for free, have more selection, and have access to it first. There really is no comparison.

    I've used a combination of free nzb sites, Newzbin and NZB Matrix and now just use nzbmatrix.
