Can anyone recommend a good review article comparing BTC price-monitoring services that provide alerts upon various targets (e.g. BTC reaches or drops to a particular price on whatever market).  Are any of the "Big Boys" who provide free alerts in traditional stock-monitoring watching bitcoin prices on Mt.Gox, Coinbase, or whatever (e.g. places like Yahoo Finance or Dow Jones' Marketwatch that let you set email alerts based on stock price targets, % change, etc.)?

Among new services, one useful insight would be whether the company is recognized with a sound reputation which might warrant some trust in a privacy policy, so you can avoid the harvest of email addresses to sell to spammers with BTC services/deals.  If not advertising-supported, what's available among those that charge for multiple alert thresholds (e.g., $9 a month for more than a single threshold setting at CoinPatrol).  While $9 seems pricey, it's not like they have a lot of competition -- or do they?
