Thumbs up Panic Unison v2.0.4 - The Best Usenet Browser



Quote:

Unison is a carefully-crafted, genuinely revolutionary Mac OS X Usenet newsreader. It offers all the expected newsreader functionality: easy-to-navigate threaded discussions, the ability to ignore annoying posters, multiple signature management, and easy, Mail-like posting with spell checking and all the trimmings.

But it also goes much, much further than any other Usenet client on earth, starting with a unique four-view interface that lets you view and work with Usenet group content in four distinct styles: messages, files, images, or music. It lets you preview MP3 files directly off a Usenet server, view images in an elegant iPhoto-like thumbnail view, prioritize transfers with a flexible downloads manager, find favorites quickly with a categorized column-view interface, smartly group files into meta-groups (like songs into albums), show download status beautifully in the dock, and much more.
Phew!

Use-a-what now?
Put simply, Usenet is the Internet's oldest message board. Containing tens of thousands of groups catering to every imaginable topic, everybody sees what everybody else posts. The Usenet network is unique: when a user posts a message on a Usenet server, that message is transferred from news server to news server, all around the world, until every Usenet server (hopefully) contains a copy of that message. Thus, every Usenet server, while being independent, is theoretically a mirror of all the others!

Why should I check it out?
Originally, Usenet was the only way to group-communicate globally -- Usenet archives date back to 1981 (!). Even today, Usenet is still the place for awesome global conversation -- everything from good cheesecake recipes to politics to what's the best Mac FTP client. (Which shouldn't be much of a debate. Ahem.)

Lately, Usenet also hosts a large number of "binary groups". These groups contain files of every type -- movies, music, photos, etc. Unison will automatically piece these files together and make them easy to get!

Of course, like the Internet itself, Usenet is a vast, unmonitored wilderness - nobody can control the content posted to the servers, so caution is advised as you navigate. But, with a little curiosity and investigation, you may find Usenet to be a surprisingly rich new Internet resource -- one that's actually been there all along!

Install notes:
1) Uncompress and copy Unison.app to the Applications Folder
2) No serial needed!
3) Prevent Unison.app from "calling home" with LittleSnitch. Don't deny all connections, though. Choose "panic.com", "Deny" and "Forever".
4) Enjoy it!

There's a great post on Gizmodo about Usenet and how you get access to it.

You can read it here:
http://gizmodo.com/5343260/how-to-kick-your-torrent-addiction-with-usenet
But basically, you'll need a usenet service provider like Astraweb.com.

I use their pay-as-you-go service. 180 GB for $25. They have cheap unlimited plans too for the hard core downloaders.

The best thing with Usenet? You'll always MAX your internet connection. I have 100/100 Mbit fibre broadband provided by Bahnhof. My download speed from Usenet is always around 12 MB/s - very very close to 100 Mbit. From start to finish. I can fill a 500 GB hdd with 1080p bluray movies in half a day. :-)

(Note: 1 Byte = 8 Bits. 100 Megabit = 12,5 Megabytes.)
