Usenet providers with the least takedowns?

[Hakzoid]

Newshosting is good, but every now and then I can't find the file I want. This site may help get around those issues.

Having a secondary provider is some advice I may look into.

I use NewsHosting too, but I find tons of stuff gets nuked within hours of posting. I've been looking for Wolf of Wall Street, Man of Steel, Girls, etc. and even the spam uploads (filled with viruses) get nuked by the provider within a few hours.

All too new, in the bore sight of the takedowners. Wait a month, and I'll wager that there will be a bunch (done by folks who know what they're doing) that will last pretty much forever.

I downloaded s03e03 720p w/o need for any repair yesteday. It was a post w/o any obfuscation.

I'm trying s03e04, it seems to have been targeted (plain sight post). It comes up way to short, 748 of 806.

There was a DIRFIX release on this episode btw. There are a few of hidden posts for this one, do you use an auto-indexer ?

I don't have a machine I can 'dedicate' to do that kind of nonsense, to be able to accept that it would be crashed upon occasion randomly, and that any other tasks it was doing are able to recover and forget about the time wasted because of that crash.

Then again, any 'tv' or episodic fare, whether it's on pay-tv or otherwise, isn't worth it to me for the effort involved, I'll wait until it's on bluray if it's any good, the only thing in ages I've grabbed is 'True Detective' and that's only because of an article about it in Rolling Stone. The first season 'grabs' were of uniformly pretty low quality (for an hour+ or so show, ~1GB) so it was 'okay' to watch non-critically, but I'll get the BR discs when they are released in a few months.

You're better than us.

We get it, thanks.

I posted Treme s04 just a month ago : scrambled names but with a nfo.
It's completely gone on Highwind and it should come up way too short on Tweaknews.

So not enough to go around HBO little hands.

Questions and potential fixes to your (unknown methodology) via PM. I'll bet you simply needed to go a couple of extra steps to get better results.
