How is rapidshare more expensive? Cheapest annual newzbin subscription in $96 for 12 months, ($8 a month)...rapidshare is $55 for 12 months or $30 for 6 months.

Depends on how much you download. You might need more than one account given RS's bandwidth limits.
 
Hi I have used usenet in the past, but was now looking towards rapidshare. There site says it is SSL secured. As a premium member are all RS dls SSL secured? Also whats there daily DL limit? I know they had one in the past, but I can't find it on the site now.
 
Usenet unlimited, Rapishare limited :) Have fun downloading Rapidshit and don't complain when they block your account for downloading pirated material eventually, and not to mention no SSL.

Plus you always, always max your connection with Usenet, and your ISP wont' care, they will care your using Torrents and Rapishare, we need more people to think Rapidshare is the best and torrents are the best and stay inside your bubble and let the heat be on you, while us Usenet weirdo's continue on our merry way getting anything we want, without so much as a blink of the eys :)
 
mm i don't think it's better than private tracker like ScT for scene stuff, the guy which built the auto-script for usenet says: "pretime equivalent to TPB".Pretimes less than 2min is for irc requests nzb.
 
Well said SoL. With retention wars rising we may have an inf. retention period in the possible future :P.

Let's hope BREIN doesn't pwn us like he's doing to Torrents/DDL.
 
yea maybe usenet was slow before many years but today usenet has very fast pretimes just learn how to search and you will be fine.i usually get my stuff from usenet and upload to rs/mu
i'm also a member of sct and can tell you that usenet has awesome pretime
quick example
Code:

don't wait someone to post .nzb file if you want fast pre > learn to search!
 
hmm and? your example doesn't mean anything.
topsites=>tops ftp=>private tracker=> NG/public tracker/boards.

usenet hasn't awesome pretime, i knwo all the best sites (private or public/irc requests)for nzb and pretimes for scene stuff are slower than sct for example...
Example Cities XL is leaked and not on NG atm...

and for bones:
!search
Bones.S05E04.720p.HDTV.x264-SiTV ] [ Uploaded first @ TV 1m 25s after pre, followed by [TiT, SCC, PTM, FF, ScR, HT, AL, TL, ACE, DD, sX, TD, BSk, EZTV] ]
!pre
[PRE SEARCH] [ Bones.S05E04.720p.HDTV.x264-SiTV ] [ TV ] [ Released 4h 54m 26s ago [10/8/2009] ] [ 1144.0MB in 24F ]
 
No, plain http as far as I know.

Also whats there daily DL limit?
5 GB/day accumulating up to 25 GB on your account. [conditions of use, IV. (2)]

every upload/download via Rapidshit is monitored
Similar to Usenet providers, they log your traffic + ip address, but not what you download.

@topic
If you find everything you want on Usenet, I see no reason to change. There might be sites of interest that upload to RS, offering additional content.
 
Ah yes, and how long does content stay on Rapishare/Megauload/etc....not very long if it's copyrighted....or if they notice huge numbers downloading, will be deleted with in minutes, as for Usenet and unless someone complains, the file stays on Usenet for almost 400 days, we get released minutes after pre (I use for TV shows, can't stand streaming them, even though it's legal to stream them, but not download them, don't get it)_so in a word Rapidsahre is a glorified tracker.....as for Usenet you connect to one server and the only way to know what your downloading/uploading is if you ISP inquires and that's alot of trouble, anybody can get you IP from Rapidshare (as above they give over details pretty quick, sure you can make the case for Usenet, but it doesn't happen "hardley" excpet for child porno, which deservedly need to be dealt with harshley....reason being people think Usenet is bad, good for them and well keep having fun for $11 a month, cheaper than a hooker) or torrent.
 
My only problem with Usenet is i cant find a newsreader im happy with. Newsbin was great until the trial ran out and i havent found a cracked version that works too well. I moved on to using Grabit but i can never max out my download speeds on it.

Then again with rapidshare you just need Orbit or Flashget and you are all good.
 
I was with Giganews 2006-2009 but right now i canceled them and only use rapidshare.
You are right, usenet offers retention, ssl, speed and so on.
But rapidshare is quite good for some things, too.
First of all i only use rapidshare during the night so i am allowed to download 50gb per day. That would be 1500gb per month. More than enough i would say?
Advantages of rapidshare clearly are the variety of porn. ;) Just have a look at some of the old binary multimedia groups, they were full of new stuff in 2005 or 2006 but they are all dead now!

I allways subscribe to the best. rapidshare is the best one click hoster, giganews is the best usenet provider.
rapidshare: 7 euro at monthly subscription
giganews: 17 euro

If i had enough money i would subscribe to usenet and rapidshare. ;)

There are heaps to choose from.
