    Hi.
    There's this complaint forwarded by Jonathan:
    
    The reason they are going this route is that some antisocial idiots have 
    set up
    automatic jobs to do bulk data downloads (of all catalog numbers?) many 
    times a day,
    just in case anything changed in the last 10 minutes...
