Did you look at Factset's datafeed? I've found its reference data and symbology to be pretty reliable. Cusips will cost a lot with redistribution charges though. You're better off avoiding them if possible.

Yeah, we did look at Factset. Ultimately we found repeated gaps in their symbology, since we needed a full set, including less commonly used symbols.
