If you're using Google's unofficial finance "api", they just shut it down

I was using this url for my WatchStocks android app: http://www.google.com/ig/api?stock=AAPL

Google just turned this off (as of Friday Nov 1st).

Recommended backup now is Yahoo: http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=AAPL

However Yahoo doesn't support as many international exchanges or DJI.

Anyone know of a good alternative?

I'm now getting lots of refunds and 1-2 star reviews for my app due to data not updating this morning.
