The reality, however, is that Microsoft’s timing appears to be coincidental happenstance to a long requested feature by users.
According to Xbox director of programming and ambassador Larry Hryb’s Twitter account, users will now have access to x2 the storage space as before, with a caveat.
New changes to Captures (GameDVR) means x2 storage space for all! Existing clips older than 90 days w/o views will be deleted, as will new clips unviewed after 30 days. Learn how to backup your favorite Captures here https://t.co/kY1lPuQYCS

The move to reduce server space being held by clips that no one is watching or using makes sense and Hryb also links to a step-by-step process a user can take to make sure they never lose their most nuanced footage, in lieu of the upcoming purge.
