The 3.5% range is from the "Good ole days" . I understand that is pretty typical of track to track fees these days. Note that I said "understand". This is "word on the street", not definitive data. If I had a reliable source of the signal fee data I'd include it in the track ratings.

Makes sense to me. I used to hang out in a bar in Alton, IL which included an OTB operation. If someone was shut out on the Internet and lived reasonably close by, why not shut down their computer and drive to the OTB. It was a decent environment.
