If reddit is any indication, half the people looking to get into those sites do so because they don't know any better. That's not meant to be a slight against the indexers. Rather, a commentary on low-information users.

People think that if they get into (pick your invite only indexer), that it will be the "Magic Kingdom Indexer." They think that there is some indexer that will have every movie going back to 1917, every CD going back to 1983 and every TV show going back to 1952. Not to mention every book ever printed since 1880.

The better automated indexers have pretty much the same selection depending on backfill. This means that people are setting themselves up for disappointment by trying to get into every indexer that is considered cool.

10 bucks a month and one time 10$ payment, what a gold mine right there.

I'm sure Time Warner/HBO has zero interest in monetizing the 1M+ users in those weekly Game of Thrones swarms. In addition to however many thousands of users grab their content off of usenet.

I have not seen a movie in the theaters since 8 Mile (2002) first came out. I imagine Hollywood might prefer to see $120 per year for the last 12 years ($1440) than nothing. I'm far from alone in my lack of financial support for first-run shows. While not the "gold mine" the film industry would like, ignoring MASSIVE amounts of lost potential revenue is foolhardy to say the least.

Kodak once totally dominated its market, but failed to pursue digital cameras because it felt this would hurt its film sales. Where are they now? Same place Hollywood could end up if it follows the same marketing decisions.

Damn, I keep missing the openings for dognzb. Can you be invited to join by another member or do you just need to be in the right place at the right time to be able to register?

[arjay]

Your best bet is try the IFTT links mentioned earlier in the thread.

Ahh, I did see them links and wondered what they were, but didn't have time to check. I have now tho, thanks for the nudge piercerseth.

i did get in the other day, finally! thanks user3240.

honestly its not a whole lot better then other newsnab indexers in terms of content, it does look alot nicer and cleaner and easy to use and has a 'few' more of the encrypted postings then say usenet-crawler.

i think its worth the one time $10usd asking price. helps to consolidate indexers

The only feature they have that is different than places like nzb.su or Nzbgeek.info is a push/pull index. It's for those who don't want to use Sickbeard/ Couch etc.

The Geek now has Geekseek for movies and will expand it to TV shows, comic books etc. Geek also has a request section so if it is not on their index, there is a good chance somebody will upload the nzb you are looking for. I think Nzbgeek.info is the best right now. It has 24/7 support in the chat room and a thriving community. You can try them for $6 for six months.

You are going to find that these newsnab and other automated indexers all pretty much do the same thing. I do agree that Dog is better than Usenet-Crawler.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll go take a quick look at Geekseek.
