I'm surprised that this hasn't been mentioned before but the biggest difference between the two bots is in the MIME types they accept.

Deepbot indexes:
text/html
text/plain
application/pdf
application/x-shockwave-flash
application/vnd.ms-excel
application/rtf
application/msword
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint
application/postscript
application/x-gzip
application/octet-stream
application/*

Freshbot indexes:
text/html
text/plain
