I am pretty sure that yahoo did some thing to stop us all from grabing
from there site a few weeks ago.
I have data again from d1 but its not often upto date and it does
appear to be now lacking the more detailed data.
I have Digital so if they were thinking of doing some thing with
now/next it would be great but i dont think there is any data there.
D1 whats happening?
