   Reviewing 3.9 (Feb 12, 2009)

   This used to be a great piece of software. It did have some bugs and developers slowly but surely fixed them. However not much has happened with it in months and may see the end of it soon.
   
   Pros:
   Easy to use interface. Excellent design and simplicity and the included Supersearch is...or was the best around.
   
   Cons:
   Supersearch was certainly worth the monthly/yearly subscription. Sadly in the last few months it's had outages lasting days a week. With little to no communication from the software's developers regarding the outages has left many customers miffed.
   
   Bottom Line:
   Was once a great piece of software. The interface was easy to use and had many useful features.
   All in all: Not worth paying for and certainly not compared to cheaper or even free offerings out there. Button Line, unless it miraculously recovers from its recent failings I'd say avoid this piece of software.

   Roj is right. This is and always has been buggy crap with a (somewhat) pretty face. It's astonishing that someone could use software like this and either not notice, or not mind, its poor quality.

   Roj, you're the one who needs a good slapping! Constantly whining like the little girl all over BN. Please STFU.

   What a piece of pure unadulterated CRAP (and this is different from other releases how?)
   
   A friend of mine downloads this garbage (a registered owner - he paid for this junk) and it eats his 20 million header database.
   
   I download this (a registered owner whose license has expired) and it comes up with "your trial period has expired... THE FIRST TIME I LAUNCH IT AFTER INSTALLING THE NEW VERSION!
   
   Hell, I didn't even get a chance to try it - and now I don't want to. I haven't even used it yet and this greedy (expletive deleted) is whining and snivelling for money.
   
   The author needs a b**** slap - this is just more typical poorly written and even more poorly tested code from this moron.
   
   ONE star - use binsearch.com and Grabit! instead.

   Getting better, still a lot of bugs, ranging from mostly annoying to a couple that will start deleting files. Using the RAR/Extract system on a large file system causes download speeds to crater. Give them another couple of months and they might get most fo them sorted out, making it usable. Until then, its Newsbin Pro for me still
