Don’t you need to spread your accounts across multiple providers due to the partial uploads in other to get a complete archive?
Last time I looked, ever the .par technology to deal with missing segments was useless. I got the impression I’d need multiple accounts to have a chance at getting a complete download
Wow it really was ages ago if you mention newsbin as an indexer. Nowadays, indexer usually refers to privately run services that index nzbs for you. Most require a subscription fee, but are worth it because without them you can’t really find anything manually anymore since the file names are all obfuscated. This really helps prevent copyright takedowns.
No problem hitting 110MB/s on decent German private trackers. Also everything worthy to keep (like highest resolution release available in case of series and movies) has been seeded, even when it’s been uploaded 10 years ago.
Which trackers did you try? ‘Just because i found a magnet’ sounds like you’ve been on public trackers?
But I’m with you, Usenet is overall less of a hassle.
100% - i get 40MB/s on Usenet, something i could only dream about on torrents…also i am in germany, torrenting is quite risky here.
When i find something on usenet, it is there…period. I can get it. On torrents? Just because i found a magnet doesn’t mean there is anyone seeding it.

What indexer(s) are you using?
I think it was newsbin? This was years ago admittedly…

Yeah, I don’t think there were discrete indexers.
I’ve missed a few rounds of cat and mouse

This exactly I find something on usenet it is there. And I can download at full speed.
