We've removed all demos older than 9 months when we were moving away from Hypernia's web hosting. The reason for this is that ETF2L had 7 years worth of demos, and they were using up a lot of disk space. Normally we would have taken pride in having an archive showcasing the evolution of competitive gameplay, but due to the way TF2 demos work, any balance updates to the game break old demos permanently - as a result, the vast majority of our demos were no more than junk taking up server space. You would need to jump through a lot of hoops to determine and recreate the exact TF2 version needed to run the demo without crashing, which seems like a tremendous waste of effort given the number of videos documenting skilled competitive play from just about every period of TF2's existence.
