Best way to fetch dynamic XML data

Hello all,

I'm wanting to know which method I should use to fetch dynamic XML data.
Is it better to use web services or to fetch the data from a dynamic XML file?

Either, use a webMethod to return a byte array of the XML data,
or use an ASP page that generates the XML data.

Any input would be great, thanks!

In your case, it would be better to use a web service as it incurs lower
overhead that a full-blown ASP.Net page.
