The 6642-day retention figure is the vendor's own and is the same on all three plans; it is a property of the article store, not a quota. |
| Binding | none Lite's 50 GB/month is exhausted in under two hours at 1 TiB/month, so the plan choice is the binding decision. Unlimited removes the byte counter and leaves connection count as the only ceiling. |
| Interface | unknown Access is NNTP over TLS (port 563). The schema's interface enum has no nntp token, so this is recorded as unknown rather than mislabelled as rest or cli; the real interface is a standard protocol every usenet client speaks. |
| Tooling | Every usenet client: SABnzbd, NZBGet, nzbget-compatible downloaders, spotweb. No provider-side API is needed or offered. |
| Composes with | The Unlimited plan is the feed behind a debrid or *arr stack: 100 connections and 6642 days of retention are what make an old post still downloadable, and 'Unlimited Data' is the only uncapped byte path in this whole lane. |
| Reliability | No incident found in the pages read. The plan page publishes 'Regularly: $19.94/mo' struck through against the $12.95 charged, which is a promotional anchor rather than a reliability matter. |
| Notes | The charged price has not moved in 36 months; what changed is that the vendor began publishing a list price of $19.94 in 2025 that it then discounts to $12.95. The page does not say whether a renewal bills $12.95 or $19.94, and the honest reading is that $12.95 is the price as long as the promotion runs - so the exposure is 54% on renewal, not a discount the client can bank. This is the largest published promo-versus-list gap in the set after Eweka. A client that pulls older releases meets removal far more often than age. Cheapest Omicron entry seen on any of its storefronts was a 15-month promo at $1.99/mo quoted by a third-party deals page, not by the vendor, so it is not recorded as a price here. |
| Evidence rung | documented Four dated reads, three archived. The $12.95 has not moved; the strike-through list price appears only from 2025. |
