    Giganews has like 350-400, files after a certain point are not all there, if at all. Its kinda of like alot of different things getting piled on a plateau from the middle, the older shit gets pushed to the edges and falls off, but some doesn't(thus a 360 day file will be fucked and incomplete and unrepairable), and the plateau's keep competing to see who can get bigger and keep the stuff from falling off the edges

    Im not sure on the exact days because both giganews and astraweb are now advertising their potential/future retention not the actual current retention.

    lol, astraweb will surpass giganews in price, im mean really who is gonna need more then 2 years worth of files? After a point its just pointless to pay the extra money. If anything people will get a 5$ block account for fills.

    nubs always go for old files, dont come here asking for requests. LOL
