I use http://akcje.net (polish language only).
They provide 350MB data in MS format with PL ant other EUs, JP and US stocks, 
commodities, currencies, money market and indexes. There are also intraday 
data available.

You can find a demo of the database structure here: 
http://akcje.net/bazy/demo.zip

They send every day prn file(s) (about 5pm New York time) that can be imported 
as ascii to database.

Price: 16pln+22% vat (equivalent to 4 EUR + 22% vat) per month

Let me know if you require any help or you can contact directly the provider:
www@xxxxxxxxxx Although this is in polish only I find this very cheap 
comparing to services they provide.

NB. I'm just an akcje.net's client, nothing more.
