Yes, from what I heard, this was close to the amount the binary files generated in new activity, but I think most places you could even get that only keep it a short time relative to the regular messages.

Brent, Traffic on Usenet is at a trickle compared to what it was in the 1980s and 1990s when I was heavily active there. The worldwide web has supplanted it for the most part. I don't think there's anything close to 1TB of new information posted on the text groups, and I don't know of anyone who's archived the binaries groups. Also, in the grand scheme of things for companies like Google, Amazon, and a number of others, 1TB is far, far, far less than the proverbial drop in a bucket. Brian
