Subject: CDL: NetAdvantage (Standard & Poors)

I would be interested in the experience of libraries with Standard &
Poor's NetAdvantage.

Were you able to negotiate a reasonable price?  Did it increase
significantly at the end of the first year? What other issues were
relevant in your licensing of this product? Did you cancel the
corresponding print products? Did you find the database effective in
substituting for the print products?
