## Newshosting

- `debrid/newshosting` | paid-only | evidence documented | binding none | category usenet provider (NNTP access, unlimited data) | tier unlimited
- needs card yes, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-03T00:35:36.094Z (live) | stale on 2026-12-04
- url https://www.newshosting.com/usenet-plans/
- free tier: None. Three paid plans; the 30-day money-back guarantee is the only risk-free route. | unit: none | metered on: none | read on: 2026-10-23 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: not applicable: a retrieval service, not stored bytes | source: [1] | note: Usenet is article-based; the object size is the poster's, not the provider's.
- retention: '6642+ Days' of article retention on every plan | days: 6642 | source: [1]
- egress: 'Monthly Usenet Data Unlimited' on the Unlimited and XL plans, 50 GB on Lite. No speed cap is stated; connections are 30 on Lite and 100 on the other two. | metered: yes | free allowance: 50 GB/month on Lite only | source: [1]
- identity: card | detail: Email and password at the signup control panel; card payment. No phone step described.
- interface: unknown
- limits:
  - volume-quota: 50 GB/month on Lite; unlimited on Unlimited and XL [1]
  - request-rate: 30 connections on Lite, 100 on Unlimited and XL [1]
  - retention-clamped:  [2]
  - request-rate: the plan's connection count is the throughput ceiling; a client that opens more is refused at connect time [3]
  - request-rate: 100 SSL-encrypted connections [1]
  - retention-clamped: 6642+ days of article retention [1]
- limits note: The 6642-day retention figure is the vendor's own and is the same on all three plans; it is a property of the article store, not a quota.
- binding note: Lite's 50 GB/month is exhausted in under two hours at 1 TiB/month, so the plan choice is the binding decision. Unlimited removes the byte counter and leaves connection count as the only ceiling.
- interface detail: Access is NNTP over TLS (port 563). The real interface is a standard protocol every usenet client speaks.
- tooling: Every usenet client: SABnzbd, NZBGet, nzbget-compatible downloaders, spotweb. No provider-side API is needed or offered.
- composes with: The Unlimited plan is the feed behind a debrid or *arr stack: 100 connections and 6642 days of retention are what make an old post still downloadable, and 'Unlimited Data' is the only uncapped byte path in this whole lane.
- reliability: No incident found in the pages read. The plan page publishes 'Regularly: $19.94/mo' struck through against the $12.95 charged, which is a promotional anchor rather than a reliability matter.
- notes: The charged price has not moved in 36 months; what changed is that the vendor began publishing a list price of $19.94 in 2025 that it then discounts to $12.95. The page does not say whether a renewal bills $12.95 or $19.94, and the honest reading is that $12.95 is the price as long as the promotion runs - so the exposure is 54% on renewal, not a discount a user can bank. This is the largest published promo-versus-list gap in the set after Eweka. A client that pulls older releases meets removal far more often than age. Cheapest Omicron entry seen on any of its storefronts was a 15-month promo at $1.99/mo quoted by a third-party deals page, not by the vendor, so it is not recorded as a price here.
- evidence note: Four dated reads, three archived. The $12.95 has not moved; the strike-through list price appears only from 2025.

- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-23: Lite $10.00/mo with 50 GB, Unlimited 'Regularly: $19.94/mo' struck through and '$12.95/mo' charged, XL PowerPack $15.83/mo, all with 6642+ days retention
  - [4] 2023-10-03: '$10.00 / mo' Lite, '$12.95 / mo' Unlimited and '$15.83 / mo' XL, with no list price shown
  - [5] 2024-10-04: the same three prices, still with no strike-through
  - [6] 2025-10-02: the same three prices with 'Regularly: ~$19.94/mo~' now struck through above the $12.95
  - [2] 2026-10-23: 'If your newsreader returns a "423 No Such Article" or "430 No Such Article" message ... the article may no longer be available on our servers'; retention 'adds one day ... every day' so 'no article ever expires from our servers due to time limits'.
  - [3] 2026-10-23: 'Retention is per provider. An article one server has aged out is very often still on another. Without a second account the only way to recover a dead article is PAR2 and that costs a read of the entire release.' Also that a second server is a second entry under the same nntp block.
  - [1] 2026-10-23: Lite $10.00/mo 50 GB 30 connections; Unlimited $12.95/mo against a $19.94 regular price, Unlimited data, 100 connections, 6642+ days
  - [7] 2026-10-23: 'Newshosting does not currently offer a free trial.'
