Yup, point is I find out much much sooner and can move on to a new nzb. A single ~15gb nzb takes 5min max whether it succeeds or not. I'm never ever waiting on slow seeds.
Multiple providers can improve availability, but I've seen no need. Everything myself or my users have requested has been found and downloaded within 25min, including re-tries. Typically it's about 15min from user request to 'available to watch' email notification.
Worse case I can fallback to torrents, but I haven't had to yet with over 31tb out of usenet alone.
