I have been using CSI's Unfair Advantage.  The data is probably the cleanest in
the industry and the software is not too difficult to use.  The software can
construct continuos contracts in a variety of ways specified by the user.  Of my
knowledge they have the the greatest coverage of domestic and international
markets of all the data providers.  I would highly recommend them to anyone
looking for clean data, timely updates, and extensive market coverage.

As usual, I have NO financial interest or affiliation with CSI other than being
a satisfied customer.

Regards,

Andrew
