Agent is the work horse of news readers. It is the most popular one. You
can read all about agent, and download it here
http://www.freepctech.com/rode/018.shtml My favorite if you will be using
it to bring in audio binaries.

  Anawave Gravity is another excellent newsreader if you have multiple
newserver accounts, but I don't find the interface quite as easy to work
with as Agents.
