Standard: http://www.ngindex.com/

NGindex.com gives you access to 1,280 days of binary retention in over 1,200 newsgroups. For just over $1 a month you gain access to their Usenet search engine as well as over a million images. View them as thumbnails or full size pics. They also carry more than 1.5 million .nfo files. Find what your looking for and easily download the nzb file into your favorite newsreader.

Not to be confused for a Usenet provider or newsreader software. Both of which you will need to download from Usenet. NGindex will help you find what your looking for across millions of newsgroup posts without the need for downloading headers. Set up email alerts to alert you when new posts matching your search are found.

Assuming you want to search Usenet for a particular topic click on the "Search" link at the top of the homepage. The nsimply search by subject. There are lots of search and filter options. Once you find the desired topic look for the colored indicator to the right. Very cool feature! Green and yellow mean your good to go (at least using Giganews). Red means the post is incomplete. Then simply click on the nzb icon to the far right to download the NZB file or the page icon on certain posts to view the associated NFO file.

NGIndex is well worth the price. At the time of our review (July 2010) NGIndex is running a special. Receive 18 months of unlimited access for $24.99. A good value as it works out to $1.39 a month. We test a lot of Usenet search sites on a regular basis and highly recommend an NGIndex membership.
