Some newsgroups allow attachments in the messages that are send to them. That way all servers get the submitted messages. These servers all have their own local copies of the newsgroups that they host, and they periodically exchange the content that have been submitted to those newsgroups. Thousands of newsgroup servers exists around the world. With a newsgroup reader program you can then download the messages that have been submitted to a newsgroup, and you can submit messages (e-mails) to a newsgroup. To gain access to newsgroups you need to have an account with a newsgroup server. Currently hundreds of thousands of different newsgroups exist for practically every subject you can think of. A newsgroup is like a bulletin board where people can exchange messages on a specific subject. Usenet exists since the beginning of the Internet and consists of a large number of newsgroups. And last but not least, you can get download speeds as high as your Internet connection allows. Some Usenet providers even offer SSL to encrypt your connection. You only download from a single location, which makes it impossible for others to monitor your downloads. One major advantage of Usenet compared to P2P download methods such as torrents, is that it is not required do upload any content. Downloading is easy and can be very fast. You can find hundreds of terabytes of content on Usenet. This tutorial will explain in detail how you can download files from Usenet.
