Review: UseNeXT | Next Generation Downloading
Nowadays BBS (Bulletin Board System), forums and newsgroups are quite common on the internet, where users can easily interact with each other to discuss different issues. One can easily find a lot of useful forums on the web to find useful information about various topics, in addition one can also ask questions and share information with others too. On the other hand, Usenet is something like modern mega forums that also allows the users to download content of their likes too at a very high-speed along with the newsgroups and discussion boards.
Technically Usenet is a distributed internet discussion system developed from the UUCP (Unix-to-Unix Copy) architecture that allows remote execution of commands and file transfer between the computers. Usenet is also quite resemble with a BBS that also allows the users to interact with each other, upload and download data, but there is an architectural difference between the Usenet and BBS as Usenet has no central server and dedicated administrator.
UseNeXT is a UK based company that offers Usenet services and the ability to download huge amounts of data at high-speed on a monthly subscription. According to the company itself, there are more than 60,000 Usenet discussions that can be easily accessible with UseNeXT’s client software program, while the daily addition of the data to the Usenet is more than 6,000 GB. This client software also comes with a built-in download engine that allows the users to download data with tremendous speed.
UseNeXT splits the large file into small RAR (Roshal Archive) segments along with the PAR (parity) files that can be downloaded easily and in no time from UseNeXT server neglecting the data transfer errors, thus it allows you smooth data downloading without any malware and error. Although there is no information about the actual downloading speed of the UseNeXT’s servers, but in normal condition users can download huge files at a speed of 100 Mbps.
UseNeXT has 8 independent server farms located across the US and Europe hosting a large amount of data that can be searched easily and requires no time. At the time UseNeXT offering three packages of 25 GB, 50 GB and 125 GB. The 25 GB package cost you €11.90 per month or €9.51 per month with one year’s membership.
Some of the prominent features of the UseNeXT software are:
Availability for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux.
Availability in 9 different languages.
Absolutely free trail of 14 days.
The UseNeXT version of Windows and Macintosh require Microsoft .NET framework, additionally MAC OS also needs Mono project that is a free open-source version courtesy of Novell.
Aside from the nice features there are plenty of negativity hovering around the downloading of copyrighted information. But UseNeXT, for me is a great solution to download content online!
