I believe they recommend the commodity ETF DBC which is actually like a MLP (limited partnership) with the following reporting requirements:

Rather than receiving a summary form 1099 at the end of the year, investors will receive a schedule K-1 to report their portion of the company's earnings. So, even if investors do not sell their shares, they may have to report an amount that is taxed as ordinary income.

I believe others also use this ETF?

Do you find these limitations or extra tax requirements a problem. I know the one thing I don't want is more paperwork.

Are there other commodity investment ETF's or MF that are different?
