Slyck News gives high praise for SABnzbd+

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Slyck News (home of the original Guide to Usenet) posted a “modern” newsreader showdown yesterday, between GrabIt, Alt.Binz and SABnzbd+. Regarding SABnzbd+, they had this to say:

“[...] SABnzbd has reinvented the newsgroup reader. With a web interface, an open source nature, and active community involvement, SABnzbd is the ironclad warship of the newgroup readers, as it has immediately rendered all others obsolete.

Thanks for the glowing review, guys!
