How long are IP address logs really kept?

George claims that DSLX retains logs for only 2 weeks:

»How long does DSLX retain IP logs?

Yet a few years ago, my friend received a letter from the RIAA after more than 2 months. If DSLX only keeps logs for 2 weeks, how were they able to identify him/her? Is there something I'm missing or did your policy change recently?

From that 6-month-old link:

We currently retain radius IP logs for two weeks on our DSL service.

What part of "a few years ago" is "current"?

The policy changed to reduce the days about two years ago. Prior to that we kept them for 90 days.

Thanks
