I understand that you get frequent updates but I don't think that means that a new echo list needs to be sent out.

Maybe you could make these updates available for freq? ECHOLIST.ZIP or so, or create a file area for the on demand updates.

I have a use for the echolist. I have it, I don't need it daily or "On Demand".

Indeed, the echolist is useful and full of good information. That doesn't mean we need a new archive daily or weekly. We do need it managed and you are doing that, thank you.

We just don't need these daily "on demand" archives, unless there are important changes or necessary corrections, then I understand.
