SABnzbd is a free/open-source cross-platform binary newsreader written in Python.
It simplifies the process of downloading from Usenet dramatically, thanks to its friendly web-based user interface and advanced built-in post-processing options that automatically verify, repair, extract and clean up posts downloaded from Usenet. SABnzbd also has a fully customizable user interface, and offers a complete API for third-party applications to hook into.

Klibido
* Automatic joining of multi-part posts
* Automatic decoding of posts, using the uudeview library (yEnc supported) or an internal decoder

* Multiple download threads per server support, with the ability to add or remove threads "on the fly"
* Gracefully handles network errors, timeouts, disconnects and out-of-space errors
* Acceptable (at least, by me :) memory usage (80-100 MB VMRss with several large groups open)
* Filter articles by subject and state (read, unread, complete, incomplete)
* Multi tabbed interface in IDEAl mode, to open multiple newsgroups at once
* KParts interface for previewing posts (.nfo, images, etc...) inside the program

o Pause (and resume) the queue
o Pause (and resume) the single posts
o Drag and drop the items around to change the download order
o Cancel download
o Lists of finished and failed items
o Granularity, with the ability to see the progress/status of the whole post and of the single articles of the post
o The progress of the download is saved and survives program exits/crashes

Leafnode
Leafnode is a software package that implements a store & forward NNTP proxy (client and server) that supports TCP connections across IPv4 and IPv6. It can be used to give a regular newsreader offline functionality, merge news articles from several upstream newsservers for newsreaders that only support one server well and avoid duplicate news download for a small LAN with multiple users reading news.
Leafnode is intended for use at home or in small offices. Scalability for large user or newsgroup counts has not been a design goal.
Leafnode is easy to install, requires no maintenance and can run unattended. It will recover from most problems without user intervention if possible. No configuration of a newsfeed at the upstream server is necessary, leafnode looks to the upstream server like a regular newsreader program.
Leafnode will automatically figure which newsgroups are read locally and will download them, and it will stop downloading from these newsgroups if they haven't been read locally. It allows for simple filters to limit the number of articles downloaded, the size or exclude articles with particular headers (Perl-compatible regular expression match). It has a mode to optionally download only headers in a first run, lets the user mark these through his newsreader (note that not all newsreaders will work) and download the full article texts in the next run.
Leafnode works perfectly with most common newsreaders either via NNTP or with traditional spool access.
Leafnode is an open source package and runs on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, and probably most Unix flavours.

NZBGet
Built for speed, works everywhere.
NZBGet is written in C++ and designed with performance in mind to achieve maximum download speed by using very little system resources.
Performance matters
Unlike downloads from www or FTP the download from usenet requires quite a lot of computation work. NZBGet is optimized for performance and uses very little memory at the same time.
Cross-platform
NZBGet supports all platforms including Windows, Mac and Linux. Binaries for Windows and Mac are available right here. Binaries for many Linux platforms can be found in their repositories or can be compiled from sources.
Works everywhere
Besides desktop class computers NZBGet works on WLAN routers, NAS devices, media players, etc. Some systems come with NZBGet already preinstalled by vendors, others have NZBGet in their app stores - check it out!
Web-interface
NZBGet runs invisible in background and can be configured and controlled from a web-browser (has a separate theme for smartphones). There is also a console interface to use from terminal.
Automation
Automatic download, par-repair (if needed), unpack and post-processing. Everything you need to automate your downloads. Powerful RSS filters with duplicate check to fetch and enqueue nzb-files automatically from your favorite indexers.
Remote control
Third-party apps can communicate with NZBGet using RPC-API. Every feature seen in the built-in web-interface can be used by other programs too. You can also use RPC ability to control NZBGet from your scripts.

nnewz
nnewz is an NNTP client written in C# (Mono). Support for download binary files and nzb file format.

URD (Usenet Resource Downloader)
URD is a program to identify, locate, and download binaries from usenet (newsgroups) through a web interface. It utilizes the spotnet protocol [Read Spotnet, Spotweb]. Similar to the spotweb client in nature for finding and identifying NZBs, URD additionally includes its own native download and unpacking engine, making it different from Spotweb.
While some other programs offer similar services (e.g. Ninan, Sabnzbd), URD doesn't need external NZB files to function. URD lets you subscribe to newsgroups, and will then automatically analyse those articles to form downloadable 'sets', consisting of all the files belonging to a specific upload. These sets are displayed, and through point and click you can be downloading a binary in no time.
That isn't to say that NZB files are unsupported. URD allows both exporting of NZB files (from a set, for example) and importing.

Ninan
Download NINAN for free. NINAN, a webapplication to download binary content from news servers. Ninan Supports the nzb file format for easy download and runs on a server or workstation on a OS supporting java 1.6+.
