Binverse is regarded as one of the best rated Usenet services around. The reason for its popularity lies in the fact that it has started one of the biggest advertising campaigns for Usenet service ever seen and also known to provide a special software that is meant to make Usenet easy for beginners.
They offer their users unlimited access along with their own newsreader. The Binverse client allows you to search for content & download them from Usenet from Windows or Mac. It also repairs & decompresses the downloaded files. If you are interested in easy to use Usenet and don’t mind paying a lot more than usual, then Binverse is certainly a good option for you.
Retention: Binverse current offers a binary retention of over 1,014 days & it is set to go up in the future. The binary retention offered by Binverse is as good as many of the best Usenet provider, if not better. The retention comes with a very high level of completion rate.
Completion rate: The completion rate of Binverse is extremely high at 99.99%, which is better than the completion rates of many of top Usenet providers out there.
Newsgroups: With this high completion rate, Binverse supports more than 100,000 newsgroups.
Newsreader: The Binverse client software is regarded as one of the best client software in the market. The client software comes with a built-in search engine which will allow you to search using various engines including Bintube, Binsearch, Newzleech, NZBMatrix & many others. This software can be downloaded for free while you are signing up for Binverse.
But after taking a closer look, we have to say that this newsreader is merely a bad copy of the many programs available out there for free. It basically uses the same free search engines as other programs, except for the “Atimto Usenet Index” which is used in some commercial usenet clients and isn’t available for free. Only the preview function for audio and video (which doesn’t work in a lot of cases) is something special, although you can get that with a client called BinTube which you can buy for a few dollars without having to pay an enormous sum every month to Binverse.
Pricing: The metered accounts provided by Binverse are one of the most expensive in the market. All accounts come with unlimited 1mbps downloads. Other pricing plan includes a Galaxy plan & a Multiverse plan. The Galaxy plan includes a 160 mbps speed & offers 30 GB usage. The plan also comes with 12 simultaneous connections. One will have to pay $13.99, $65.88 & $107.76 for a month, 6 moths & a year respectively. The Multiverse plan offers unlimited usage to the Binverse users at 160 mbps & with 12 simultaneous connections. For using this plan, one will have to shell out $29.98, $99.90 & $179.76 for a month, 6 months & a year respectively.

Security/Anonymity: Security is guaranteed since all connections are SSL encrypted. Bineverse also pledges not sell your information to any third party. They also claim not to track your downloads.

Payment options: Payments to Binverse can be made through credit cards & PayPal.
Conclusion: The services offered by Binverse are quite good, but incredibly expensive. Although a few function are relatively exclusive and rather easy to use for beginners, this doesn’t at all justify the immense prices for their services. They are definitely not one of the top most Usenet service providers as they’re merely reselling other services. If you want to avail of Binverse’s services then make sure you check out their free trial first & then decide whether you should take it or not – We would really advise you to signup for a much cheaper account at one of the providers we rated on our main site and use one of the many free newsreaders out there or, if you really need extremely easy use, signup for Easynews (you can find a link on our main page) which really is the better choice as it is really easy to use.
