Increase Usenet Cache Time

As majority of users are not on pro tier and usenet is really for more so niche content that means very few users will be watching the niche content every 30 days, I would like to see usenet cache time increase to 60days or even 90days, this should really help the pro tier have more content and really help the Usenet cache staying cached for other pro user. Having lots of smaller titles and more niche content will make user feel its more worth when to upgrade to pro tier.

    niche? torrent is not first release ground. we prefer usenet to torrent.

    Agree to this more cache in time.

    I think there's an old ticket suggesting the opposite of this because Usenet is so much faster that the cache isn't as necessary for speed. Maybe letting all tiers have accessed to the cache, but just the cache, regardless of source would help with keeping things cached. I'm not sure if it would make much of a difference though.

    If this were to be taken on I'd think it would only really make sense for the Usenet files TorBox finds on it's own. This is because ones coming from custom indexers are probably never already cached.

    Not to mention the fact there's no tv show season packs, on individual episodes so keeping cache on a series is also harder
