More importantly:
how to go around those takedowns ?
how to know about them without having to download the whole stuff?
Use a good NZB completion checker like this one (MUCH quicker for checking completion than actually downloading everything
):

Download link is on the righthand side of the page (NZBcc 1.1.0.0alpha (

After installing it, check the settings. Under validation methods, make sure "use article head" is ticked because this is more accurate. Then just add a news server, load an nzb you wanna test for completion and bob's your uncle!
I did some testing (using a random UFC nzb) seeing that i have access to a few different usenet accounts....
Details:
Release: UFC 145 Jones vs Evans PPV HDTV XviD aAF
Link on nzbmatrix for those interested:
http://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-details.php?id=1254654&hit=1
Age of nzb (as of today when the test was done): 25 days
BTW, according to nzb contents this release was originally uploaded using astraweb.
Results using nzb completion checker:
Astraweb (eu.news.astraweb.com):
100% completion but this is false cause what astraweb has done is to keep the articles but fill their content with "Content removed due to DMCA."
So if nzb completion checker ever gives you good completion of an UFC nzb, first try and download one rar archive (and the first .par maybe if you wanna check the file using a par checker) from the nzb and check if the contents is txt and contains such a DMCA message.
