In the beginning, IBD thought the competition was the WSJ.  I guess WON has
been successful since you now have accorded him a monopoly label.

And I thought in a free market, you were able to enjoy the fruits of your
labor and innovation.

Guess you have a different take.

If you are really serious, just how much money has the IBD, Investors.com,
etc., enabled you to make?  If you are like me, the small pittance we pay
for the IBD and its service bears very little resemblance to what we make
using the information.

If you haven't made money using real honest to goodness $ or just want to
paper trade and backtest a theory to death, I guess the price of admission
is more than your local paper or the free services you can find on Yahoo,
MSN, etc.,

Quite frankly, if WON decided to double the cost, it would still be a
bargain to me!

But then, I remember paying many thousands of $ a quarter for the O'Neil
Stock Graphs. And when we paid $1.2 million in good money for a hard drive
platter and thought 1.2 Meg was more hard drive space than we would ever
use.

heck, I would probably pay more just to help establish some competition. I
hate monopolies, Mr. Softee not withstanding.

So, Duke would you be willing to charge group members a discounted rate from
IBD rates for your archived articles?

PS: I am sure most of us would come to you first.

Good tip Kelly.

Or...if you're perusing the site and want to save a story, go to the top
of IE, select File/Save As, then put the article in a directory for
later viewing or reference.  In other words, build you own archive.  I
do this everyday with Screen of The Day, some investor's corner
articles, etc.

A computer tip:

As if IBD doesn't make enough money of its subscribers- they charge you
for archived stories- even from yesterday. Well- it may be cheating the
system, but let's say you are looking for a story that you viewed
yesterday on the IBD web site and you don't want to pay $2.95 to
download it today. Chances are it is still cached on your hard drive and
you can search for it using Windows Explorer. I was able to view the
Who's Who in Restaurants chart from yesterday using this method.
