The week I spent setting NZBs and all this archaic stuff up (subscribing to NZB providers... which ones again... well they keep going out of business... sigh) and setting up Sickbeard and Headphones and everything was a complete waste when the production companies began their assault on Usenet.

It became functionally less useful than Bittorrent immediately. Tons of stuff I could find on torrent sites were just not available on Usenet.

My experience was a complete waste of time and money setting everything up.
