Giganews Increase Binary Retention To 50 Days!

I Just received an email saying that Giganews have increased their binary retention to 50 days. I would love to know how much storage that requires. My ISP only has about 4 days retention and doesn’t cover a 1/3 of the groups Giga does but that still equates to Terabytes of storage.

I’m still amazed that more broadband users don’t use newsgroups as they are not that hard to configure and use once you work it out.
Probably just as well though as most ISPs would probably melt down if their users started using newsgroups.
