CSI Pricing Letter

Dear Omega List:
 
    A CSI letter recently sent out to a handful of CSI users cautioned
against excessive service use and the possibility of increased fees.  As
it turned out, the letter recipients involved were under a
misapprehension that they had to build portfolios of thousands of data
series per day to capture any one of the many thousands of markets CSI
offers.  Such an account would have fallen into CSI's Commercial
category.  We are surprised that that false assertion made it to the
Omega List.
 
    CSI is not imposing any additional fees.  In fact CSI's 25,000
Stock, Mutual Fund and Index series is priced at only $12 per month, a
fee less than half that of the competition.  We haven't heard any
complaints about that.
 
    The policy announcement turned out to be predicated upon a mistake
and there are no plans to implement any increase in fees.  Our license
agreement defines personal use and daily distribution of the entire
database would place such a user in a commercial category and that was
not the case.
 
    Thank you for the opportunity allowing us to set the record straight.
 
Bob Pelletier for CSI.
