I've been using the Downloader since I went with MetaStock. Get my futures
prices via CompuServe. Costs me $9.95 a month plus a penny a commodity or
stock or index. I get about 35 a day and periodically go back and capture
some additional data. My cost runs about $15 to $20 a month.
I am going to try to figure out if I can get this stuff via the Internet and
drop CompuServe.
Light Crude and the S&Ps usually aren't available until 4PM Pacific time.
Regards

Wayne,
For the last seven months I've been downloading futures prices
from Prophet Data (http://www.prophetdata.com/). $19.95/month
gets you updates on multiple contracts of 35 different
commodities. For an extra $5, you get perceptual contract
updates. The prices are available around !:30 PDT and are
easily downloaded from the above site. Customer service is a
bit slow to respond (the trend in the software industry), but
I've found the whole process to be fairly clean. Anyone who is
receiving cheaper data and are "in love" with their data
provider, please "chirp" up. I can be had for cheaper and
better.
