Usenet / Newsgroups downloading service offers 

Usenet service - some very low pricing offers from Newsgroups Direct.

These allow you to access date from the Newsgroups, including the ones carrying Binaries - photos, video, data, apps, etc.

* Very fast to download, you are getting data from a secure server farm.

* No peer to peer connections, so no monitoring of who is sharing what.

* Files posted in the newsgroups will be around for a LONG time, unlike some of the p2p methods were people are interested at first, but later it is hard to complete a download, few seeders, etc.

I haven't used it in a while, but still have a bunch of data left from a Block I purchased from the company.

If you are Uploading (posting things to Usenet), that traffic is NOT charged to your block, it's all for download.

Takes a bit of learning, but there are good guides and the software has became easier over time. Give it a try. 😉

They have a sister company,. now offering over 4,000 days of binaries retention -- that's over 10 Years. Something posted in 2009 is still on their servers.

There are many Usenet new user guides, Bing lists a few : bing.com/search?q=usenet+tutor

Looked over a few of them and liked this one: ngprovider.com/usenet-newbie.p

They also have another page, listing the very important tool you need - the Newsgroups downloader software. Page is here: ngprovider.com/best-usenet-new

I did not see my old time favourite, called Alt-Binz, which is full featured and fast. altbinz.net/

It's probably not the easiest to use, but a powerful tool.

** Speed! Note on screnshot below, a dload coming in at * 39 MegaBytes per SECOND *.
