this must be something I'm too usenet to understand
kidding of course, well done and thank you for your service
Actually if you would be so kind, what is the rundown of Usenet? I've searched a bit but been busy to really sit down on it, should I consider it being just a side thing (for now)?
Usenet is here to stay, it is similar as if you pay for vip in order to be able to leech without seeding. This makes automated pirating legal in some countries (like mine) since only doing direct downloads from your usenet provider. The usenet provider have servers which exchange bits of data with IDs similar like we do with torrenting. As a user, you now go to a indexer, who gives you a map, with which bits of data you can construct your file. So you then download each bit directly and put everything together and are rewarded with a normal file. Until now I have found every release which is also in predb using the private indexers I have.
Any Usenet providers and indexers you'd recommend? I tried it a few months ago but couldn't quite wrap my head around how to use it. (I'm technically literate, but Usenet was completely foreign to me until a few months ago.)
I fear that it is not allowed here, but there are cats, dogs and slugs which are very good as well as one with a name similar to matrix. Then there are the ones with NZB in the name and some are just drunken.
