Question on switch to free search engine with Newsbin

Postby atomarchio » Fri Nov 30, 2018 8:09 pm

Can I use one of the free search engines with Newsbin? I don't use it very often. Currently running version 6.72.

If so, how would I do that?

Please let me know. Thanks.

I'd upgrade to the latest.

Most other search engines supply "nzb" files. If you feed these NZB files into Newsbin, drag and dropping them or using NZB Autoload is the best way, Newsbin can download these files as long as they're still on the news server.

I was buying "Standard Internet Search - 6 months" and paying $14.99. Is there a less expensive option for purchase? I don't use that many searches.

Please let me know. Thanks.
