API key
« on: May 21, 2013, 10:43:58 am »
hello. I'm new to Alt.Binz so forgive me if I ask incorrect. I# Do I have and or what is my API key. 2# I'm looking to download newsgroup feeds, newsgroup binary feeds, is this possible with Alt.Binz, I donated the 17 euro, so I presume I'm a vip. Any help would be terrific, thank you.

1. API key is a key that allows searching through nzb.su or omgwtfnzbs sites. You have to be member of those to get your key.
2. If you're thinking about downloading newsgroup headers - no, alt.binz doesn't support those (a bit pointless these days IMO)

I like your reply, but is it really pointless to want to view a.b.pictures.******* I am looking for this, its not pointless to me. I, until recently used UseNext and all the a.b newsfeeds where automatic with Tangysoft, any expert suggestions please. Also with my donating does this make me VIP? Thanks again.

There are no VIPs here, only contributors.

thanks, so I'm a contributor. I suppose you don't have any comments on the first part of my last question? Never the less, thank you for your help.
