By using NZB sites you will be able to download NZB files and/or use an NZB search engine to find what you are looking for on the Internet. Our favorite top ranked best NZB site was NZBMatrix(Now Closed) Another up and coming in late 2012 NZB site that was open to the public would be NZB.su (however they are closed and only open occasionally - be sure to signup to our mailing list to be notified.
To get access to the best NZB sites – you now will need NZB site invitations if you join our mailing list – we will be giving away NZB site invites – Join our Mailing List here –> http://usenetreviewz.com/special-offers/
Its worth mentioning that Newzbin (another popular NZB site again also closed) was responsible for the creation and promotion of the NZB file format which has helped to streamline the process of sharing files on Usenet. Newzbin is not to be confused with Newsbin which is a newsreader and not an NZB aggregation service.
For more about NZB files and Usenet downloading you could take a look at our tutorial series on how to download from Usenet.
Essentially you would need just three things. (You don’t need to know the internal details about an NZB file.)
Three Tips About Getting Started with NZB files
