Is Newsleecher still the best?

^ You can't browse groups with Alt.Binz. You can only download NZB's with it. But that's all I do anyways, so Alt.Binz fits me perfectly. I'm liking this reader more and more everyday. It's completely replaced NL for me.

i like alt.binz better since it unrars after it downloads. You can also have it delete the files.

You can't directly browse groups (you can't download headers). But you can browse them indirectly using the built-in access to the indexing sites such as newzleech/binsearch. This works just as well without the CPU/bandwidth/headache of downloading headers. Browsing takes seconds.

I like it too but it is buggy. For instance, sometimes it just stops downloading for no reason. This has never happened using agent so I'm sure it's not my server. Also, you can't download headers which you may never need but it's nice to at least be able to.

NewsLeecher gets my vote. It's free too and you get super search.

Oh. Actually I stole it.

That's why i can't use it anymore.

I haven't had any downloads stopping before they're suppose to be. I'm using version 0.27.2. If you're not using that version then give it a try.

EDIT: Actually, I just checked and the newer versions(0.28.0 and 0.28.1) are finally available on Usenet.

Another vote for Sabnzbd from me.. the original program has been abandonded but it's supporters have taken it on and it has a new home with lots of new features :

Built in repair, unrar and delete functions, auto grab from Newzbin Postid completely skinable.

I personally think that it all depends on the user. Just try out a few clients and see which one you like best, some have extra features others are more stable.

I personally use Newsleecher for when I want to browse some groups and of course the Repair'N'Extract feature.

I feel that NewsLeecher is better for me.
But I also use NewsBin Pro at the same time.

It depends on your experience. Not the best soft is fitting for you.

Here's something worth mentioning if it hasn't already. For the movie downloaders try NZBplayer it allows you to download and stream the movie http://www.nzbplayer.com/
It has a built in VLC player. I like it so you don't have to wait for the download to finish. Also if you don't like the built in VLC that they have there is a way you can open up the movie and open it it up in the actual VLCplayer so that you the settings because the built in one they have only plays the video.

Edit: Forgot to mention it repairs and extracts the video too just remember to delete the rars and pars when the download is done. It should be in the rar folder of VLCPlayer
