What do you use Newgroups for?

[mongo2011]

In terms of binaries, what do you mainly download?

I started off as a test wth Xbox games which is straight forward and amazingly fast with a large selection. But movies, and DivX films especially is very dissapointing as even a few popular films like 'mean girls', 'Collateral' fail to appear in any group.

The search engines are just a bad when it comes to movies, what do you download from newsgroups mainly?

New releases are mainly the mainstay of binaries in most media so dont expect to find old flicks to often...

You cant search by moviename.. most files are not named the same as the movie itself

I download everything of usenet... (mostly DVDs)

newzbin coppies everything from the free index sites/programs

All what is posted on FTD (dutch) is coppied on the newzbin site.

so why pay when you can get it for free?

the same reason I pay for anything, convience. The free site are nice but are limited too so many people. Plus I split the cost with a friend.

download mostly new movies and apps in German language.
since some great groups for sampling and audio stuff got screwed up i get them
from from private tracker now. but newsgroups still great for other kind of stuff
like games for pc and consoles and all kind of music.

Where do you get that idea? :huh:
They download all the headers all the time and editors sort them out for the subscribers.
Yeah,sure there are probably some editors that make use of FTD and such,so they know what to look out for.

But Nezwbin just blatantly copying everything from other indexing sites?
Nah,don't think so.
