I’ve been downloading files from usenet for a couple years now; but I’ve never really known how to upload content.
Ultimately I’d like to find a Linux tool I can use from the command line that accepts a file (or folder), performs the necessary steps to break it into parts and upload each to a configured usenet provider, then spit out an nzb file for retrieval to be uploaded to an indexer.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Yes, geek has a very nice automated API to upload a bunch of nzbs at once, but it requires a paid account for that. I will look into crawler, I didn’t know they allowed it too. I know other place that allows but I’m too afraid to use it, and also I wanted things to become broadly available, not exclusively locked to a single indexer.
It would be nice to have a place that every major indexer would pick from, instead of contacting each one. It’s not very popular things, but would be great for preservation of media for the future.
Well, I believe I’m already not being very silent…
