Private Tracker??, that a bit advance for me,...I just go to Piratebay.se, look for content, and load...If I recall, 13gigs and there were a few seeders....but even well seeded content eg Game of Thrones, takes a bit to download...started using nzbsa again....and I just hot the 100gig level on a 4meg uncapped line...

Can somebody please enlighten me on NZB Downloads, and news Servers... ASB MENSE.

So i downloaded some app that allows NZB downloads, but the app says i must contact my ISP and get my news server details to log on, IE: URL, Account etc.... Is this true?

It's good for current series but not old stuff which is probably why yebocan is using torrents for Buck Rogers as it's not available via NZB.

Yes, and as I don't use NZB that's my final word on the subject. Let's hope more knowledgeable people chime in here :)

One question regarding nzb's. Is like torrents that you have to rely on "seeds"? Will really suck if it does! (Yes, I never touched news servers before, so forgive me for my useless questions!)

All well and good until you're shaped.

I did the same last month and have now returned to OW.

Guess it depends on whether you hit the 'cap'?

Good luck!

Whats your line speed?
 
1Mbps line, I got to about 100GB DL before I was throttled.

Speed dropped to around 384kbps after that.

Total numbers for this month, 8th->27th (when I cancelled):

Upload (Bytes) Download (Bytes) Combined (Bytes)
65 836 942 841 128 248 122 145 194 085 064 986

IS news server worked better for me...
