Along with providing unlimited, uncensored access to all binary groups, Giganews has a decent price line-up, with an unlimited plan that costs $24.99 per month. An additional $5 will get you SSL encryption and boost your max number of concurrent connections to 20. This package is available as a Diamond account for an introductory price of $19.99 for the first month.
"Giganews prides itself on delivering the premium Usenet services our members expect. We enjoy implementing features that improve our members’ experience and we are excited about offering 240 days of retention across binary newsgroups," commented David Vogelpohl, Vice President of Marketing at Giganews.
The storage infrastructure needed for this retention upgrade has been ordered and Giganews expects to have the upgrade complete during September 2008. After the storage infrastructure is in place, retention will grow from 200 days to 240 days. The service also now accepts PayPal and offers custom usernames to its customers.
