wget is a built-in alias in Powershell. 'Wget' alone gets you an object of course, with the status code, headets, etc. included. (wget http://google.com).Content gets you the content.
Seems about the same as basic uses of wget. Can you go into more detail?
The verbosity doesn't bother me too much personally: it saves me a lot of time remembering commands and there's tab completion, and of course there's aliases.
