Newshosting’s offers their Lightning Accelerator which is similar to the Giganews accelerator which improves header download speeds using stunnel. While most people typically don’t take advantage of this nonetheless this is a nice additional feature.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Newshosting is one of the best premium providers in the industry and, considering the resources that they’re continuing to invest into the service, will be for years to come. We recommend checking out their 2 unlimited specials with the 14 day/ 30 Gig free trial.

I took a trial with these guys, and it worked well (after a few minutes waiting for the automatic setup, the download speed was nice and the retention perfect). You actually don’t need a credit card, a PayPal account works, too. When I was done trying their service, I managed to mess things up and accidently turn my account into a paid one without meaning to. I sent them an e-mail, and within hours they cancelled my account and paid back the full amount! My trust in online companies has been pleasantly restored
. Thank you Newshosting!
I am still within my 14day Trial. I will say I am extremely happy with their service. Very fast! Tops out my connection. And so far I have found EVERYTHING that I searched for. Well worth the monthly cost for such a reliable source for all my DL’s. I will recommend them to others for sure!
Just signed up with newshosting. Having never used usenet before I don’t have anything to compare them to but I couldn’t be happier with their service. I would recommend them to anyone.
First I would like to thank this site(usenetReviewz.com)for their informative and helpful reviews. The coupons and discounts they offer are an added bonus.
Last week I joined newshosting because of the price, the built in browser and it sounded like one of the easier providers for a first time user. Im happy to say that newshosting is pretty easy to set up and use. They have a tremendous amount of content that is easy to DL. Im very happy with the service and would recommend to all.
