It’s official — Giganews has hit the 400 day mark and is still going. This is good news for the industry as a whole, because it drives other providers in the same direction. And even better, Newshosting, UseNetServer, and NewsDemon are right on their heels, providing enough competition that Giganews can’t rest. Who benefits? We do! Here is the official press release:
Giganews Inc., the world’s foremost premium Usenet provider, beat its previous record of 365 days of binary retention. The company now provides customers with 400 days of binary retention in all 100,000 plus newsgroups. Giganews now stores more Usenet data for a longer period of time than any other Usenet provider.
"It was fantastic to meet our goal of providing a full year of binary retention, and today’s announcement is even more rewarding," said Philip Molter, CTO at Giganews. "Providing 400 days of binary retention across all newsgroups really shows that Giganews won’t ever stop pushing to exceed our customers’ expectations."
Giganews continues to lead the Usenet industry and plans to further upgrade data storage around the world. The Giganews homepage is updated daily to reflect ever-increasing Usenet retention levels.
