Post Description

URD is a web-based application for downloading usenet binaries. It is written entirely in PHP, yet uses some external tools to do some of the dirty CPU intensive work. It stores all the information it needs in a generic database (like MySQL or PostGreSQL). URD supports indexing, using RSS feeds and using Spots. Articles that belong together are aggregated into sets. Downloading files requires only a few mouse clicks, and when the download is finished it can automatically be verified and extracted. Downloading from usenet is as easy as using p2p software!

A strong point of URD is that no external websites are required, as URD generates its own download information. It is possible to create and download an NZB file from specified articles as well.
