The grabbers offer you the ability to retrieve binary files on Usenet.
You must configure your grabber with the data that you provide your newsgroup server (ID, server address, port, etc.).
Once the grabber configured, you can start downloading any file available on Usenet.
There are different grabbers on the market. The free and paid. Note that the free will grabbers want more and more complete and now offer their users lots of options previously reserved for paying grabbers.
How to choose a grabber?
He will take over the NZB file format
It is a priority if you plan to use websites like Binsearch.info or NZBIndex.nl. These sites then allow you to download NZB file which is found all information about a file or files you want to download (a collection of files).
Without support NZB files, you will oblige you to browse newsgroups and even select each item to download an article ... usually a file ... knowing that content can be cut into dozens of archives.
Support NZB files is a priority!
It will require an interface clear and legible
Indeed, sometimes you need to juggle the files being downloaded, those that need repair, those beyond repair, etc..
A good interface where all information is legible and available makes life easier.
Some interfaces can also move a file in the queue easily. This is a significant point.
It will offer an integrated, reliable testing, repair and decompression of data downloaded
With an integrated solution, you will save time. Without an integrated solution, you should always check and repair it yourself each downloaded content before it can be decompressed.
With verification and automatic repair, some grabbers can pause PAR2 files as your records do not need to be repaired. This is one more and you had to think!
Your grabber will stay up to date
Forget obsolete grabbers and whose latest updates date back too long.
The best grabbers market, free or paid, are often updated and they do not hesitate to take innovative features to their competitors. And it's good for us!
Stay up to date to always be at top!
You will need to adjust the speed of your downloads active
If you surf a lot for your downloads, and even if you download from another PC, your grabber will use your connection to its maximum possible speed. Therefore, you will not have enough bandwidth to surf or play games networks optimally.
Temporarily decrease the maximum speed for your downloads on newsgroups and the problem is solved.
This feature will be more accessible, you will lose less time, and will better your experience.
