  • Usenet is a network that had been created long before the Internet itself (and now become a part of it), and was used to communicate and publish files. Usenet also featured newsgroups where users could post messages which was very convenient at that time! As the Internet matured, text communication on Usenet had died away and the network was used primarily for storing and transferring files.
  • An NZB file is basically the Usenet equivalent of BitTorrent's torrent file, in that when you download an NZB, you're simply downloading a file that points to files available on Usenet.
  • Usually, files have their retention time. Since 2008, the largest providers stopped deleting files, so you can easily download files that were uploaded eight years ago, while smaller providers usually set a retention time of 1000+ days.
