Thanks Bruce and Yeechang for the information.

I was mainly concerned with the abilities of mythfilldatabase--can it 
handle importing data that's more than 2 weeks away. It sounds like the 
main limitation is with the total amount of information, rather than the 
length of time. Since I'm only dealing with about 10 'channels' I think 
I'll try lengthening the time period and see what that does.
