Title says it. Is anyone still on the newsgroups? For reasons I need to amass a large collection of music in MP3 format, preferably full albums, and I’d like to do it somewhat quickly. Is there a better place to hunt before I buy news server access? I been on land for too many years.
I use it exclusively. I think it’s better than worrying about torrents. It almost feels obfuscated with the indexer.
I haven’t used usenet for 15 years or so. After nzbindex chucked it in.
What’s the situation with incompletes / DMCA’d releases?
Is one usenet subscription enough or do you have 2 monthly subscriptions? do you need a block account ?
I previously has a subscription last year (just one provider) and had sooo many incompletes. It was barely usable.
I recently set it all up properly and I haven’t had a single issue, even finding old movies with no issue. I have a provider, an indexer, and a cheap block account on a different backbone to fill the gaps. It works like absolute butter.
Sonarr, radarr, prowlarr, SAB and all that … do it right and it’s amazing.
