To summarize, Usenet is made up by servers that host all the “newsgroups”, but nowadays newsgroups are used to share files (like email attachments). You don’t need to know anything about Usenet itself, the things you need are three: an indexer (they let you find nzb files, like torrent files) a Usenet server subscription (where files are actually stored) a client to download from that server (nzbget and SABnzbd are the two most used) Good luck!
