True, although in this case, I think a thousand words would have been overboard for a snide comment.@cold
a picture is worth a thousand words.
No.Giganews is clearly the way forward
Yeah, Supernews are Giganews, and they are one of the worst affected by takedowns.
Astraweb is a different provider than Binverse, so if you really wanted old files like this, you'd have to sign up with them and use another client (as in not binverses own client).Sorry if this is a noob question, but how can I DL them from AstraWeb? Do I need another DL client? input it into binverse?
Well, Astraweb are only slightly more expensive, but for that you get more or less the same retention as a proper Giganews account and less takedowns. That's not to say astraweb are immune to takedowns though, just that for the time being they are not as much of a concern to the media companies. That'll probably change.Damn. I'm only paying $9.99 for Supernews with unlimited download and 400 day retention. I really don't want to have to look for another provider. But if this keeps up I guess I'll have to. Or else just go back to torrents.
Ok, so I decided to sign up for astraweb. Paid and everything. What kind of client do I need to DL?
