there's only a load of crap on newgroups

Every video or tv show I download needs to be repaired or can't be played. Get WinRar Diagnostic messages and Quick Par blocks come up.

This is so frustrating!!
 
I'm new to Newgroups. Last week I subscribed to Newsleecher & Supersearch for $3 a months and found some hard to find music - not mainsream - with my standard ISP's news server. Only problem was the retention is only 7 days.

I then bought a non-expring block of 10gb premium news hosting from usenet-news.net. It has 70 days retention, and since I'm a light user it is plenty for my needs.

I get content 3 ways:
1. BT with one or two private torrent sites
2. ISP for newer content (within 7 days)
3. The premium news server for 8 days to 70+ days.

Newsleecher is VERY easy to use, and I toggle between the two news servers. I also am subscribed to a few news groups that i check every day.
I have nothing to compare Newsleecher to, but it is VERY easy to use.
The only problem I have is getting information on the content, such as the bit rate of MP3, prior to downloading.

BT and Newsgroups have their strengths and weaknesses, but using both for me at least is the best way to go.

Totally agree although not tried supersearch. I use BT and NG a lot we have to use whatever we can for our files. To further my thoughts we should all stop beating each other up. NG is better than BT (which it quite clearly is lol) and vice versa. :naughty:
 
Then how come all his posts in the Newsgroup section are just as retarded as this one...

Really I think he is just a moron... This thread is not even close to being an April Fools.

Here are some of his other posts...

surely there must be a search site that lists say 300 searches per page. I put in alot of titles and they didn't even come up. I thought binsearch was meant to have all the major news groups? What a flop this USenet thing is.

Most of the files I try and download go into error. What a real disappointment this is.

Is nzbmatrix a Server? If so then is binsearch also regarded as a server?

Seriously this guy is a retard... He doesn't seem to understand the answers he is given on any of the threads he has started.

No they are newsreaders, I mean news provider example giganews, Newshosting, Usernetserver.
 
I primarily download all tv shows, dvdr's and such from Newsgroups. (My choices have been Newzbin, Newsleecher and Giganews. Have used Newshosting, too.)

There are also a lot of programs, music, almost anything you can think of.. And what's nice is the retention. You actually can get two months old stuff @ lightning fast speeds.

Of course, BT compliments NG. Using both is my way to go. So far has been a pleasing journey ;)
