ishares (index shares) should 'track' the underlaying Index ..
So (at least in theory) there should be essentially zero difference between different suppliers offerings ... although if your Stock Brokerage Account is with Barclay's I guess you you might get some sort of discount when buying their version rather than anyone else's ..
Check with your Broker - they might not be offering a choice anyway :-)

Barclays (BGI) is the biggest provider of this type if thing but we are seeing more coming on stream.
The important thing is the underlying index you wish to track. In theory, 2 providers tracking the same index should give the same result - the only difference being charges.
See the link below for lots of info.
