Change the hardware and operating system. Change the computer from PC to Mac and change the operating system from Microsoft Windows to Mac OS X. Want to use Usenet and download interesting videos on the computer. Well, we have a problem, because most programs are newsgroups clients on Microsoft systems.
We are looking further and it turns out that, however, is not so bad, and some interesting items on the market there. Among them, for sure, I recommend:

July 24th, 2010
Did you hear about MIMO? No? Well, MIMO is a new product that allows you to browse Usenet network resources. MIMO is a product of the Golden Frog, which is associated with Giganews. Giganews is the most powerful player in the world, not counting the Google’s Usenet network.

Usenet, Giganews
July 6th, 2010
Usenet is a mysterious creature for younger users. In Poland, became quiet about Usenet when the discussions appeared well on the forums accessed by the web. Meanwhile, in the west Usenet reborn and is successful. It brings together many users. Usenet has evolved from large text data repository to a vast collection of binary data. Few people know that in the Usenet can find the latest movies, music and other materials. That’s all we can download a very high speed. Read more…
Astraweb
June 27th, 2010
I wonder passivity Astraweb in marketing. Astraweb received multiple clients from Giganews, because introduced a flat low rate for all. Moreover, this is a company that competes with Giganews when it comes to retention time. Many users have changed their usenet providers in crisis and now pays Astraweb for access to Usenet.

Giganews goes ahead
May 20th, 2010
Giganews just crossed the 650 days of binary retention. It is the undisputed leader among providers of usenet. The truth is that Giganews has exceptionally good, and scalable infrastructure allowing the continuous increase retention while maintaining completeness. Thus, Giganews does not reject some lesser-used newsgroups only cares about the completeness of all newsgroups and they are kept.
Elizabeth Kintzele, Director of Sales at Giganews said:
We are continuously focused on creating and maintaining an exceptional system that allows us to continue adding days of retention. It takes a lot of work and the right people – we have the space, the staff, and the in-house scalable infrastructure to store and support the data and system in order to allow for growth and adjustments.
Giganews crosses 600 days barrier
March 31st, 2010
Giganews has made a tremendous leap in technology. Leading group of companies offering Usenet already offers access to binary data at the level of 600 days in the past. Giganews yesterday passed through the 600 days barrier as the first . It should be noted that Giganews cares about the integrity of data. More than one of us can annoy if download a large binary files and some of them will be damaged. We must then try to fix it but who has the time? With Giganews, we can be sure that we get the service at the highest level.
We need to remember how big they are now requirements for disk space – let’s look at how many HD movies are now occupied, and other binary data. Data comes from year to year but is also constantly increased retention time. Have a look at historical data looked like Giganews progress in increasing the retention time of binary data in the newsgroups: Read more…
