[RT] Re: Market Data Sever letter, "Interesting"

Hi,

Does anyone know of any alternatives to the M3 data server?

I had emailed one fellow who had developed a feed driver for
DTN, but he wanted about $60K for it.

I was looking for something which works with DTN or one of
the other major broadcast feeds, and has a well-documented
API/method for accessing the tick data. Basically a piece
of software which acts as a feed driver, and possibly
archives the data.

A replacement for M3 and its SDK.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Brian
