Er is een nieuwe bètaversie van NewsBin Pro uitgekomen. Met dit programma kunnen bestanden, zoals foto's, video's en programma's, van usenet worden gehaald. Het heeft alles wat je van een usenet-downloader mag verwachten, zoals ondersteuning voor multithreading, ssl en autopar. Verder zijn er uitgebreide filtermogelijkheden en kan er van een optionele Usenet-search-service gebruikgemaakt worden. In versie 6.70 is onder meer de download-engine herschreven, is de spam logic verplaatst naar een aparte dll en definitief afscheid van Windows XP genomen. De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
