Default WS fluid alternative?

Ok saw an AMSOIL rep yesterday at the local home show.. They have a AMSOIL lite tranny fluid that says it replaces the WS fluid. He could not answer whether it was ok in CVT trannies. Does anybody know or tried this AMSOIL fluid in their RX Hybrid.???? The fluid can be had for $8.50 a quart. Any thoughts?

OK answered my own question found this on AMSOIL site...apparently their fluid is ok for rear axle, but they have no recommendation for CVT transmission.
