Hello Paul,

I use FutureSource sat for my  primary (TS4)and am going to go to TS2k
on my seconddary so I've been going over internet data vendors
recently.  by process of elimination I've decided on eSignal.  Here's
the tortured logic.

PC Quote/Hyperfeed has no refresh facility and I don't trust
Historybank or omega refresh to be around when I need it. Around
115/month.

quote.com conitinues to get a lot of complaints and I'd have to use
Dynastore's product.  DS is OK but one must maintain two symbol lists.
Also, I don't want a third application if I can avoid it.  nothing is
maintenance free.  around $89/month.

eSignal interfaces easily w tS2k, requires no "translator" , can
provide refresh data thru Dynastore's product (120 per year). around
$82/montth (annual plan) + $10/month Dynastore for equities and sp/nd
mini's.  addl $50 / month if you want to get all futures.

there are probably other configs but I don't know them or have ruled
them out in the past bec of cost, complexity.  For example, something
call UMDS can work I recall but know little about it. It is not a data
feed itself but may allow you to use other data feeds.
