Finding information and torrent sites is pretty easy and well covered in the mega thread.

Is there any chance Usenet sources and info can be added?

That’s my general request but my personal request; are there any Usenet sources that are recommended for general, music, anime and/or pro wrestling content? I’m familiar with XWT and Nyaa.si on the torrent side.

    Drunkenslug and NZBGeek seem to be the go to for Indexers. I use Sunny Usenet as a provider.

      Simple and concise, yet it’s the core info that I needed. Thanks!

        I use NZBGeek & FrugalUsenet, I found a $4/m option for frugal via a Google search.

    Generally speaking usenet indexers are not specialized so most of the time you’ll just have to try different general usenet indexers & see if any work out for you.

    for general

    Most usenet indexers are in that category. If you are just starting out then look into NZBGeek & expand from there. Their internal forums can also help with learning about the rest of usenet.

    music

    Same as above, most people use general usenet indexers. The only specialized indexer is the Headphones VIP indexer, not sure if it’s worthwhile but you can try it yourself https://headphones.codeshy.com/vip/

    anime

    Anime Tosho specializes in that category (they aren’t just strictly usenet). Otherwise it’s general usenet indexers.

    and/or pro wrestling content?

    Doesn’t exist, you’d need to use general usenet indexers.

    AnimeTosho also has a lot of anime, they’re simply posting selected nyaa.si content to usenet. Probably worth checking before downloading via torrent, as the Usenet download is much faster.

      Thanks. I signed up and got a few things on the go and have found torrents to be faster. Might be on my end though.
