Use command
lean live xxx.py
Enable delayed market data (yes/no)? [False]: yes
Select a data feed:

  1. Interactive Brokers
    ....
    To enter multiple options, separate them with comma.: 1
    Downloading 'QuantConnect.InteractiveBrokersBrokerage.2.5.15634.nupkg'
    Error: The Interactive Brokers feature requires a Researcher seat or higher, please update your
    subscription at https://www.quantconnect.com/pricing

I chose option 1 (IB), and encounter the above error. That means I have to buy researcher seat with $8/month to use IB as data feed?
This does not make sense. I have paid data subscription for IB, now have to pay extra money to use Lean CLI?
