Your suggestion of taking this issue in-house is admirable. With all due
respect, to the original writers of the finance package, they have not kept
up the maintenance so maybe it time has come. It also seemed to be overly
complicated to maintain and its abilities varied across platforms for
example scheduling an update on windows.
Two URLs spring to mind:
http://www.google.com/finance/getprices?q={code}&x={exchange}&i={interval}&p={period}&f={fields}
http://www.google.com/finance/historical?q={stockCode}&startdate={startDate}&enddate={endDate}&output=csv.
May I suggest that this would be adequate for quotations that could be up to
24 hours old? If you really require real time quotations then maybe you
should be paying for it somewhere else.

I'm not sure, of legalities of using the Google data but an obvious
acknowledgment would be a start.

So is it possible to do it?
