Hi,

Sorry if this has been posted before but I'm looking at trying Usenet instead of torrents.

I've done some Googling and honestly, it's a little overwhelming knowing what Usenet provider to use, where to get quality indexers and which download client would be the best.

If anyone has any resources or advice to help me sail the Usenet seas I would be eternally grateful!

If you're planning to download media, check out the Server Wiki. It has guides on setting up all the software to automate the process.

Thanks, but I am currently using Radarr and Sonarr, just looking at alternate potentially faster sources

You can use those on usenet, too. Just add your new trackers and download client, the rest of the -arr stack can remain as is.

Perfect, thanks!
