Sounds like usenet isn't something for me then.. I think 90% of our movie/tv library is more than 10 years old
Maybe. But the 5000 day retention most servers have is since upload. It doesn't relate to how old the series or movie in question is. If you search for a title, you're almost certainly going to find a few dozen or so versions of that title in various definitions and age. For example, just for kicks, I searched for episodes of the Andy Griffith show, and the oldest files I found were 3700 days old. The series is a bit older than that, of course.
You can get plenty of older shows on Usenet it's not like you won't find something like Star Trek from the 60's. Hell I recently started downloading V from 1984 so...
