    This seems to be the standard sale price…
    $36 USD per year.
    How does this compare to newsdemon?

    • drinkin-beer on 20/01/2021 - 09:20

      Newshosting is generally regarded higher than Newsdemon. I have used both and honestly don't notice much difference i still use my backup servers. If you're patient you can get Newshosting much cheaper than Newsdemon.

    • jwilthethrill on 20/01/2021 - 09:24

      Better retention and they don't throttle heavy users like Demon does.

    • ujwols on 20/01/2021 - 10:17

      True. I got mine when it was $25 USD (BlackFriday promo), but this is their current best deal as far as I know.

      No experience with newsdemon so can't comment on that
      I have newshosting as my primary provider and I also have one other block provider for the backup

    • Garyd123 on 20/01/2021 - 12:05

      Newshosting is great. I've used them for about 2 years now. Rarely need a backup.

    Can be cheaper, i think it goes really cheap a couple of times per year. I pay $20 USD/year for newshosting.

      If you're not sure what this is used for there is no reason to get it

      • Samcool80 on 20/01/2021 - 09:38

        Was expecting this answer anyway. I know it's similar to torrent but would like to know more how to use it

        • jackwoz on 20/01/2021 - 09:41

          You get this. Then you input the details given for this service in to the download client ie. SABNZBD. Then you need to find somewhere to download the NZB files, which there is usually a subscription

          Try the wiki on the usenet subreddit, good place to start

      Benefits of usenet over torrent :

      1. No need to seed/upload, so no legal issues usually
      2. No peer to peer download, you download directly from their fast servers ( so no need to rely on the mercy of peers or be dependent on their upload speed)
      3. Encrypted ssl connections , so your ISP won't know what you are downloading.. they just see you are downloading something big, but can't tell what you are downloading ..you may be downloading legal linux distros :)
      4. Very large retention policy so you can usually find very old movies/shows
      5. No need of VPN which could slow down your download provided you use SSL connectivity with your usenet indexers as well as with your usenet providers

      If you dig deeper into it you can fully automate your media management experience coupled with some other tools like
      Plex
      Radarr
      Sonarr
      Subnzbd and more ..Endless possiblities :)

        Sometimes during peak hours I'm convinced the ISP/ RSP is throttling usenet ports . Although they assure me they do not </sigh>

        • ujwols on 20/01/2021 - 10:29

          Yeah but that is ISP issue not usenet provider issue..

          I use Mate and have no issue with download.. have downloaded 530GB in the last 3 day itself with my 50 MBps connection :)

  • tombarbera on 20/01/2021 - 09:43

    Do you know if it's possible to get this as a current subscriber? I'm paying ~$50 a year. Worst case I could just abandon my old account and start again on this better deal?

    • jwilthethrill on 20/01/2021 - 09:51

      Try contacting support, most providers will help you transfer to discounted prices if you ask them

  • ArskinF on 20/01/2021 - 10:01

    OK, paid my monies, but cannot connect (Linux)

    Installer package fails with "aborted"

    No help or contact on newshosting website - log in screen does not work for me. Fields disabled.

    Anyone know how to contact these guys?

    Thanks

      Forget that. Got connected on port 443

      • ujwols on 20/01/2021 - 10:35

        Always use ssl port 443/563 to connect to indexer and providers for security/privacy reasons

        • ArskinF on 20/01/2021 - 10:41

          I understand that. I was testing on 563 and got timed out. Their web site lists alternative ports for SSL. 443 worked. All good.

  • striker5950 on 24/01/2021 - 18:04
