I didn't know Astraweb has went up to 141+. Sweet, I'm definitely going with them now. Best value around. And that retention is surely enough. Plus it's only going to increase anyways. I just hope they stay at the same price when the retention hits the 200 day mark. Which I'm sure won't be long.
EDIT: Actually it's a 142+ days.
I used to buy gigs with Astraweb. They had good speed and price. I have been with Easynews for 5.3 years now. I can't give up their web interface plus I have over 450 gigs banked. They are aiming for 200 days of retention soon. I can't wait!Astraweb is the best in ive ever used! i recommend them fully man, only downside is dont sign up on a Friday or weekend , best

hi everyone im brand new here and so far this forum has been really helpful
in fact I was planning on buying a usenext account until i read some of the things on here which quickly changed my mind.
I am considering getting a usenet provider and so far it looks like giganews is the way to go but I have one question.
What is this retention you guys are talking about? I dont really understand
Thanks in advance!

Retention is the time a news server (Giganews, for example) holds a newsgroup posting (files) before deleting it.
ps - Congrats on seeing the light.

100 days retention/ but i have a block account with astraweb aswell as back up!
lol its really funny to count every single day retention
here's another recent convert to Astraweb from Giganews - pretty impressed so far and saving £ 10 per month
PS - retention now at 145+
