Really awesome deal for those that are not super heavy downloaders that don'
t need an unlimited plan. No site can beat this price, Astraweb charges $25
for 180GB and blocknews charges like $90 for 1TB.

For those that already know about Usenet you can ignore the following:------

Once you figure out Usenet, you'll probably never go back to torrents, I
only use torrents for the occasional hard to find thing.
Here are all the links for the Usenet guides I found helpful when I wanted
to learn about it. Read through them all and you should have a good grasp
of how it works and everything. If you need help to get started or can't
figure something out just post a reply in this thread or PM me.

To get started, the first thing I would do is go download the free clients
Sabnzbd and Binreader and see which one you like. Both are Usenet clients,
just like utorrent is to bittorent or jdownloader/IDM is to the file
uploading sites like Rapidshare/Filesonic/etc. Binreader is extremely
simplistic but it works decently (great for noobs), Sabnzbd is more
complicated but it's better. Some people don't care for it though because
the only way to access it is through the web, since it is a Python server.
Play around with both and read the wiki manual for Sabnzbd so you understand
how it works. I forgot to mention that Binreader doesn't work with SSL for
newsgroupdirect so instead of Binreader try Unzbin for a super easy to use
NZB downloader if you don't like Sabnzbd.
Next, you should create accounts on nzbmatrix and nzbsrus. For free
accounts they limit the number of nzb's you can download per day and the
retention time but you can still download fine. If you like usenet it is
worth paying the $10 or so fee to become a VIP member for nzbmatrix that way
there are no restrictions, that is what I did and nzbmatrix is the only
site I use.
Next, you need to find a usenet provider. The above deal is great for a
first time starter since you only have to pay $50 and you can download 1TB
of whatever. If you're a really heavy downloader then I would suggest the $
10 a month Astraweb plan or the $10 a month usenetserver plan. I've read
several postings in forums where people that have usenetserver as their
provider say they split the plan with a friend so it comes out to $5 a month
per person. Most providers do not allow 2 IP's to be connected at the same
time from the same account, but apparently usenetserver is relaxed. If I
decided to go with an unlimited plan it would probably be usenetserver.
