I found about Usenet and the sort of "hype" relative to it and I wonder some stuff.

Maybe I'm a bit old school but is this process not against the spirit of piracy,

Just wondered it, if someone wants to give his opinion

You need to find a newsgroup provider with alt.binaries access and good retention.

Then you have to find a good indexer. Think of it like a torrent tracker but for Usenet nzbs

Then you need a snatcher like sabnzbd or something else.

But what's your opinion about it, because don't you think it's opposed from the original torrenting piracy spirit?
