Hi Tom,
About QDP from Quote.Com, it is actually $300 one time fee for the API and
the monthly charge is $80.  But I agree with you...who would want to go thru
the trouble of developing a system with delayed data feed??!!  I think after
taking off Qfeed, their real time data feed product, from the market, they
came up with this comical concept to see if there are any suckers in the
market that can be bled! But hey come to think of it, there may always be a
market with fresh blood cycling in and out all the time!
