SSEC setup a program where Unidata sites can register and download
up to 5 GB of data per month for free.  We published an eLetter article/
blog post on this some time back:

    Free Satellite Archive Data Access for the Unidata Academic Community
    
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/news/entry/free_satellite_archive_data_access

Please note that there are a maximum of 60 users that can take advantage of
this service at a time, and users need to register each month.

Cheers,

Tom
