Thanks much for the tip Alex, MT Newswatcher looks like a keeper. Not quite as slick as NewsShark, but totally better than what I expected to find available.On Sun, 12 Sep 2004 00:45:57 -0400, GDB-B&W-YDL3.0.1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm looking for a newsreading program that is especially made for
downloading large files. I used NewsShark for this in Windows but in
moving most of my operations over to the Mac, I would like to be able to
accomplish this feat on my B&W as well. I regularly scan the
alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.1950s-2000s newsgroups for copies of my old
vinyl albums. While I have a hardware/software setup to do this, it is
taking much longer than I originally anticipated. Plus there are a few
of my old albums that are too scratchy even for the best scratch removal
software. I would like this to be is OSX, but I could do it in OS9 if I
absolutely had to.
I go to those same groups, and use a free program called MT Newswatcher, which is available here:

It already combines almost all of the mp3 files for you, so you don't have to combine and decode them yourself, and works great on OSX 10.3.5.
