    "Excellent Newsreader"

    March 19, 2006  |   By chasblock

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    Ozum Newsreader provides excellent maintenance of newgroups, decodes articles quickly and populates subscribed groups with no hassles. Built in viewer works like a charm, for binaries. Combines .rar and split files automatically. Easy to learn and easy to use. It has replaced Gravity as my newsreader of choice. It is well worth the money. Tech support via email is prompt, courteous and extremely helpful. If you're not using Ozum, you're missing out on the greatest newsreader ever written.

    Cons

    Deleting already read files could be a bit faster. But this is a very minor drawback.

    "Outstanding Newsreader"

    March 8, 2006  |   By wfujioka

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    This is one of the best newsreaders that I have come across. I have used other newsreaders but by far this is one of the best one to date. I had purchased this in Oct 2005 and have used it ever since, Kudos to Ozum for making the best newsreader to date.

    "Easy to use, a must for people who have little or no experience with newsgroups"

    March 5, 2006  |   By Tjerk Brouwer

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    Very easy to use, one stop shop for getting your files from newsgroups. Just a few mouseclicks and you can download your movies and other multimedia. No knowledge required about zip, rar and so on.

    Cons

    Not all faults in downloaded files are repaired correctly; in that case QuickPar (fully freeware) is the solution.

    "The best news-reading software money can buy"

    February 24, 2006  |   By Yorkie0362

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    I use Ozum and recomend it to other, because, I think it is the most featured yet simplest to use of all the packages available. If downloading binaries is your bag, then Ozum will download and compile all the parts for you with one double click... no fuss.

    I like to also keep my text groups apart from binarys and I do this easily by setting up seperate projects.

    And finally the cross group search facility is an absolute god send as is the support if required. If you want a reader that will do anything newsgroup related, get ozum, jack of all trades\master of all...

    "An Excellent News Reader"

    February 16, 2006  |   By Donv

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    This reader is great, particularly it deals seemlesly with diferent post file formats.

    Also when large files have been split between seperate posts a search is instantly made to determine that all are present before down loading. If all present then the posts all download and the attached file is recompiled automatically, ready for use.

    The new thumbnail facility is also useful, particularly for photos.

    Cons

    Can't think of any!!

    "Takes the drudgery out of downloading newsgroup articles and images"

    February 12, 2006  |   By jfk49

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    I was impressed with how easy the Ozum Newsreader is to use. The fact that it support yEnc decoding is a major plus. I particularly like the Ozum search engine and active binary groups directory which quickly allows you to find exactly what you're looking for. Images load in an instant and navigating the browser is a breeze. I highly recommend Ozum for all newsgroup tasks.

    Version: Ozum All-in-One Newsreader 4

    Pros

    I have used OZ since version 2, which was a long time ago. It is stable, reliable and does that is says it will do. Last month I got version 4, and wow! I had a chance to get a free newsreader from a usernet group, and I would rather pay the small lic fee to OZ than use something else
