Types of clients[edit]
- Text newsreader – designed primarily for reading/posting text posts; unable to download binary attachments
- Traditional newsreader – text-capable newsreader which can also handle binary attachments, although not as efficiently as more specialized clients
- Binary grabber/plucker – designed specifically for easy and efficient downloading of multi-part binary post attachments; limited or nonexistent reading/posting ability. These generally offer multi-server and multi-connection support. Most now support NZBs, and several either support or plan to support automatic Par2 processing. Some additionally support video and audio streaming.
- NZB downloader – binary grabber client without header support – cannot browse groups or read/post text messages; can only load 3rd-party NZBs to download binary post attachments. Some incorporate an interface for accessing selected NZB search websites.
- Binary posting client – designed specifically and exclusively for posting multi-part binary files
- Combination client – Jack-of-all-trades supporting text reading/posting, as well as multi-segment binary downloading and automatic Par2 processing
- Web-Based Client - Client designed for access through a web browser and does not require any additional software to access Usenet.
