What news/nzb app are you using ?

Out of interest, what app is everyone using for news? I have tried them all and the most feature rich one I can find is newsleecher, second to a new one called ultraleecher.

I'm using newsleecher (which is a pain in the #$% at the best of times

Newsbin. Use Grabit as a backup if Newsbin isn't working.

Oh and all news downloaders should get hold of quickpar and yENC32.

Why not use nzb's? Then there's no need to use the search function in newsreader.

Also there are alot of good search sites to do the job for you

@ Highflyer. I do use nzbs most of the time, but depending on where you get them, they arent always as updated as they should be. Im a subsciber with newzbin. The superseach enables you to find most of the stuff that a nzb has not been created for. Spare par files, replaced corrupted files etc. Its awesome to be able to find them so easily, and plus...it means you dont have to download all the articles for the group or constantly update them in order to find the hidden gems you are looking for, which saves time and bandwidth.

You just pop in the search box what youre looking for and it scans the complete server all 80 days. Youd be amazed what stuff you can find
