I use it by having an ISP that has a binary news server, from which I can download using a binary news reader like Grabit (free but some quirks in newest version), Newsleecher (shareware, best client but site down) or Newsbinpro (shareware). Others subscribe to a pay server like Giganews or Supernews. -- Firefox Web Browser - Rediscover the web - http://getffox.com/ Thunderbird E-mail and Newsgroups - http://gettbird.com/ |

Yay! Problem is, both my crappy ISPs have no binary news servers.
sbcglobal.net (DSL) doesn't offer them, and ku.edu (employer) recently decommissioned theirs, so while I can get the newsreaders, I can't access the files in the groups. I'm shut out! Anyone have any suggestions? Downloading the .avi or .mpegs, of course, was just fine--my Mac will play Windows Media files, too, but I've only got the two ISP possibilities for newsgroups, AFAICT. Ewoud, you've made the winter quite enjoyable with the files you've provided to date, so thanks and thanks again for your time and effort! Cheers, Eric |

Here's some more detail: http://www.giganews.com $12 gets you 10gigs of usenet downloads per month. The cyclocross worlds is about 700M, so you have plenty of room left in the month for extras. Their retention should have all the other cross races someone posted over the last month or so. I can DL from Giganews' servers at over 300Kb/s, completely maxing out a cable connection. 20 minutes to grab Worlds? alt.binaries.multimedia.sports is where someone posted the Worlds a few days ago, labeled "St Wendel". I'm on OSX , so I use a binary newsreader called Unison. Works good. Free for a few weeks. MacPAR deluxe will unpack all the files you pull down from Giganews. Google will find you all these things. Thank you mystery man! Sure would be nice if someone kept doing this through the Spring Classics for the things that OLN won't cover... One can only hope. Five hours of Flanders? Unimaginable for us over here. And thanks for the whole cross season, it's been great to see finally. You've made a bunch of people really happy. |

I was new to this too, but found that Earthlink has access to the the
binary groups at no extra charge. I was able to use Grabit 1.5.1 to download all the different parts in one operation and then WinRAR 3.4.2 to extract the MPG file. It was all very easy considering I had no idea what I was doing. Thanks "Ed". Bret |
