Dont bother with that dinosaur.
Buy a seedbox that supports streaming with plex.
https://bytesized-hosting.com
Install Deluge then plex in your control panel (one click installers).
Then as soon as the torrent is done DLing plex will automatically add it and you can stream in browser instantly, or any here the plex application is supported (all devices).
And there is also no risk of getting copyright complaints from ISP because u never DL

Make sure that you are trying to download articles that are someone recent. Most usenet servers have a retention time of about 200-365 days. These might seem long but given that over the last handful of years, Usenet has filled up with a ton of garbage posts or passworded survey linked archives, a lot of good content gets pushed off servers pretty fast.
I would not suggest using usenet to download movies or applications, and just stick to music for the most part. Applications have become like Limewire where everything is infected, and Movies are almost always passworded and require you to go do some stupid survey that never works for the password.
As shit as it sounds, you are better off staying with torrents.
