Usenet (what it is?)
Usenet is a global system of computers that exchange messages on thousands of subjects. Messages are posted to newsgroups, they are organised in hierarchies. As for today it has millions of users.
But there are thousands more newsgroups that are dedicated to sharing and downloading binary files. Binary files are data files and they can be jpegs, mpegs, bmp files, avi files, in fact, any file other than a text file is a binary file. Binaries are music and movies and pictures. Using our service you can search newgroups for some part of binary content (movies and music).
Binary Retention
The term Newsgroup retention means the period of time newsgroup articles are made available on the news server. Old articles and files need to be removed to make space for newer articles and files. As soon as the hard disc of news provider is filled up, the oldest files are automatically deleted to make room for the newest ones.
Actually the best news providers offers text retention up to 1900 days and binary retention of 200 days or more.
Mostly the increase in retention will neither affect current pricing or existing plans of news providers.

alt.binaries.pictures.erotica (newsgroup with pictures - nude content)
1,231,824 images
