CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This robust newsgroup reader is excellent for accessing large media files. Featuring an attractive, tabbed interface, Android Newsgroup Downloader is simple to use. Its automated, wizard-like setup feature quickly moves a first-time user through its functions for easy downloading and reading.

This reader offers multithreaded downloading for quick access to posts, particularly those potentially large media files (e-books, video, audio).

Android features a separate To Do List pane that lets you choose and save headers for later downloading and reading. Built-in bandwidth counters let you review the amount of data transmitted or received, categorized by session or since installation.

Further, the Throughput-O-Meter provides a graphical display for performance during uploading or downloading. Android Newsgroup Downloader offers plenty of bells and whistles for the experienced user and all the simplicity a novice could desire. We recommended it for any and all.

Android has many user-friendly features, including a built in queue manager that saves your "to-do" list from session to session, and a history that keeps track of what you have downloaded.
