I had no troubles adding the Giganews server information to the client and support for the Giganews Accelerator was given as well. Instead of clicking on hundreds of files to download them you can simply load one NZB.Īlt.Binz looks like a great client. NZB files contain information about multiple files and their location on the Usenet. You don't want your ISP or someone else snooping on your traffic finding out what you are downloading, right ? And NZBs are a a standard that makes it a lot easier to download from the Usenet. Multiple connections is a no brainer, Giganews (the best Usenet Provider) provides access to ten connections to their servers and a client should support that to maximize the speed from the server. Let me explain why I think that those three are essential. These features are multiple connections and SSL and NZB Support. But John Tash send me an email a while ago asking about my opinion about the news client Alt.Binz and I finally found some time to check it out.Īlt.Binz is a free Usenet client that supports several of the most important features a news client should have. I'm sometimes getting asked if there are free alternatives to Newsbin and I always have to say that I have not tested any of them. It's not a free software and I made the purchase because at that time it was definitely the best client available. I'm very fond of the Usenet client Newsbin which I have been using for many years.
