Other than being  car-specific do they strip anything out?

I think the only diff between that and my commercial account is that it only lets you reference the vehicle you plug in. There are so many sources for info, and when I was a tech rep for Snap-On,  Alldata seemed to come out on top. As it goes, Mitchell still revises their info where Alldata is all raw data. The issue with Alldata though, is where do they cut off the pipeline of raw data. On the commercial side, if I need additional info, all I have to do is put in a request via e-mail. Day to day, Alldata grades about a C+. If I charged 200 a month in High School though I bet I wouldn't have a diploma!!!! :O Back to your ?, I suspect they don't cut anything out. They don't revise on the commercial side, the personal side just has to be a bonus to them.
