Mastercook and MealMaster are the "de facto" standard in exchanging
recipes.
I use Mastercook (version 7.0, it is alive and kicking!) and have got
easily
over 25,000 in it. I find it easy to go to any web site and do a cut and
paste into Mastercook. You do have to edit a couple of things but 95% of
the
work is done for you.

Check out this site:
http://www.madsrecipes.com/ and see what all you can just import.

If you go with NYC just make sure that it works on mastercook or
mealmaster
format files. Then google and find the recipe sites for importing.

Out of interested, I downloaded a trial copy of living cookbook from a
site someone recommended. I wasn't impressed. Could not get Mastercook
since I live outside the States - not that I would have bought it anyway.
They don't offer a trial copy.
