Post Can anyone recommend a decent Usenet provider?
Getting a bit annoyed by filehost providers, so was thinking of going back to using the good ol' usenet.

Can anyone recommend a decent Usenet provider? With decent data retention, no download limit, decent speed, and preferably some form of encryption.


I found a few review sites, but can't tell if the reviews are bullshit or not.
Giganews gets a lot of credit, but maybe some of you know of a downside, or know of a better service?

And are there any good NZB sites that are either open to the public, or doesn't require an invite?

And maybe you know of the perfect program for downloading NZB files?

:cheer:

Giganews is the best one, but it's also expensive. I'm still very happy with Astraweb, but I know some people are complaining about its speed and/or completion rate.

Unless you download untouched Blurays, Block Accounts are a very good option. Astraweb has block accounts and BlockNews is also very popular on that front.

Anyone able to help me out with the following? I downloaded a rar-file which I found through eMule search. Unfortunately, it is passworded and I don't know the password. Apparently, it was posted on Usenet, so I was wondering if someone could check if the password was posted here too.

The file: Terminal.Choice.Discografie.By.Pieperx.rar [1.36 Gb]
