$35??? What a ripoff, news shark is buggy, slow, interface is horrible. Do yourself a favor and get Newsleecher, it is far superior and cheaper!

NewsShark is a great program, There are a few bugs with it, but all in all its great, especially the ability to resume timed out downloads

I was using this newsreader exclusively for a while but I have found that their decoding engine isn't the greatest in the world and I was dropping a lot of files due to decoding errors, mainly MP3s. Downloading them with Agent and they don't show any errors whatsoever but News Shark kept choking on them. Nice program but their decoder needs work. I switched to NewsBinPro and that program is by far better than anything I have used.
