I've never used Usenet... I'm really not familiar with it, tbh. I just DDL or stream everything lol.
dumb q: what is DDL?
DirectDownLoad, is used to describe sites that offer download links without needing special software or protocols, might require lots of clicking through ads and downloading big files in multiple parts on different sites, since file hosts usually give a size limit to the files, think megaupload back in the day, you often hear the term warez for those too
Great thank you very much!
