“Excellent Mac Usenet newsreader”
by Cyril Roger
Unison is a clean and powerful Usenet newsreader for Mac. Built by the good people at Panic, always ones to come up with well designed and intuitive applications, Unison has become the newsreader of choice for many Mac users.
Unison makes it easy to connect to a Usenet server then offers a simple interface where you can easily browse, find and organize your posts and downloads. You can store files into groups, create favorites, and thread messages. The advanced search can be coupled with rules to better organize files.
Unison's download manager lets you handle multiple downloads effortlessly, and you can reorganize your queue, pausing and launching items based on their priority.
The image display has been known to crash, and it's a shame that Unison doesn't come with a video preview feature, yet all in all it seems to have just the right set of features to focus on your newsgroups and not get bogged down in items.
Unison is the newsreader of choice for Mac users: clean and efficient and well organized, it's a pleasure to use when it comes to working on Usenet.
