NZBGet — Efficient Usenet downloader

NZBGet is a binary downloader that downloads files from Usenet based on information given in nzb files.

NZBGet is written in C++ and is designed for performance and efficiency.

NZBGet can run on almost any device — classic PC, NAS, media player, satellite receiver, WLAN router, etc. The download area provides precompiled binaries for Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD and Android. For other platforms the program can be compiled from source.

This is a fork of the original NZBGet project, formerly maintained by hugbug. The nzbget.com project continues where the original left off, in honor of and with respect for its maintainer of many years.
