SmackDownOnYou Review

SmackDownOnYou highlights:

  • Search the site for NZB’s
  • Over 250k NZBs indexed
  • Private Usenet search site
  • Sickbeard & CouchPotato
  • Limited NZB downloads free
  • VIP’s get 300 NZBs a day

Update: we DO NOT recommend using SmackDownOnYou. It appears that paying members are being asked for more money to keep their subscriptions active. That’s total BS considering that membership is suppose to be for life. You can read more about users complaints here:

SmackDownOnYou features:

SmackDownOnYou.com launched in early 2013 and only offers premium memberships atm. The site says its a Nzbmatrix clone but actually it’s built on Newznab. A popular indexing platform used by several NZB sites. You can still sign up fro access but it will cost between $10 and $75 for a membership.

We’re turned off by the VIP-only option for registration. There isn’t any way for a new user to check out the site without paying first. That isn’t a good sign in our opinion. We would rather get to know the site and see how active it is before upgrading to VIP.

Not to be confused for a Usenet provider or newsreader software. Both of which you will need to download from Usenet. SmackDown will help you find what your looking for across millions of newsgroup posts without the need for downloading headers.
