Multi-book odds API vs Pinnacle-only feed
Answer: multi-book APIs (OddsJam quote-only, OpticOdds quote-only SSE, odds-api.io from Solo+WS €118, The Odds API from $30 REST) win for line shopping and arb. A Pinnacle-only WebSocket (PinnFeed Builder €99/mo) wins for sharp-reference steam, value and CLV. Hub: alternatives.
