I have used usenet since 1994.
Have been a heavy downloader. When I switched to mac, my biggest problem was that it was no easy/good newsreader for mac. I had to have a PC just for that work and used Agent and later Newsbin.
But then Unison came. I have been using it since early 1.04 stage. The first versions did not work great for me, but after that: no problem.
This is a no-frills, easy and working usenet reader and downloader. It does not have all the bells and wistles like Newsbin on PC has, but I would not trade this program for that.
The program is so simple. Just type your server. Drop the .nzb file: and its done.
Quick and stable. Have downloaded over 16 terra the last 12 month with this program.
The infrastructure on Mac is far superior than PC when it comes to news, par, unrar and split and concat.
Get this program. And get newzbin accont and giganews. Unlimited downloads. Everyting that is released to the world is avaible there. Fast..
Panic support rules. When I had an issue, they helped me fast. They also have had free upgrades since 2003. Real value for money.
OSX 10.5 has taken out one of my favorite features: Sending/receiving SMS via the Adressbook. This program almost fills the void by the stupid Apple move.
This is a great program for listening and recording radio arround the world. Using this program, it takes just minutes to find the program you want to record. For me, living outside the US, this gave me a chanse to listen to loads of US program I always wanted to listen to.
The program has a really slick interface. A great searchfuntion and a programguide that works really good.
I can't really give justice to the program. If you like radio, download the demo and test it. It is a win win situation.
