Response to c-41 Black and white film

Five years seems a bit drastic for expected life of this film. I have some Ilford XP-1 I shot about 12-15 years ago and the negatives are still quite printable. I'd expect the new XP-2 and CN400 to last about as long as any other C-41 film: about 25 years. This is only one reason I use T-Max 100 now. The other is so I can process it myself and control the contrast.
