Dont have a binary news account, any chance of a bit more info please. Binary newsgroups are basically the same as these (text) newsgroups, except each post has an attachment. There are groups for music, films, dvd's, programmes, literally everything that it's possible to download is there - the difference between getting something from usenet and the same thing from P2P is that P2P requires another person to firstly, have the item that you want, and secondly, to stay online long enough for you to get it, with usenet you can download at the maximum speed of your connection 24/7. If you decide you want it, then you need a download manager like grabit (free) or newsleecher (not free) grabit is my personal choice - this is your window into newsgroups, IE like outlook express, except you can't download multipart binaries with outlook express! Secondly you'll need a news account, some ISP's offer binary news although most don't, once you've signed up to a news account, you'll get a username and password which you insert into grabit and connect to your news server....I use Astraweb, they offer 90 gigs of downloads for about £12 and there's no time limit on using it up, other news services are usually monthly fees, starting at around 7 - 8 quid pm. Large items are posted in several hundred smaller parts, usually numbered thusly: Medion gopal(1/196) 01rar Medion gopal(2/196) 02rar Medion gopal(3/196) 03rar Medion gopal(4/196) 04rar Medion gopal(5/196) 05rar The numbers in the brackets tell you how many parts there should be, and they are zipped into rar files, you need them all - simply open one of them with winrar (free) and inside is your dvd / album / copy of Vista etc. |

Is Astraweb as good? Completion is virtually garaunteed, although retention is only 21 days, unlike Easy's three months. Astra do several monthly plans as well as the PAYG, but I rarely DL much, and I use Yabse.com to search for items, rather than update enormous groups, with Yabse you can DL the NZB file which Grabit (or newsleecher) then opens to DL all the posts even from unsubscribed groups. Yabse also shows if posts are complete. Astraweb also offer smaller packages than the 90gb one, I think the cheapest one is 25Gb @ £5.16p ($10)....none have any time limits. |
