NZBGet is a binary downloader, which downloads files from Usenet based-on information given in nzb files.

NZBGet is written in C++ and is known for its performance and efficiency.

NZBGet can run on almost any device - classic PC, NAS, media player, SAT-receiver, WLAN-router, etc. The download area provides precompiled binaries for Windows, macOS, and Linux. For other platforms, the program can be compiled from source.

This is a fork of the original NZBGet project, formerly maintained by hugbug. The nzbget.com project is an extension of the original, and is maintained in honor-of and with respect-to its maintainer of many years. We hope to continue where the hugbug left-off by providing a useful downloader for the benefit of the Usenet community.
