Mike,

I think the usabe of their info will not"caught", and if they do they would likely send a note to please follow their terms of use as shown on their website.

Me? I don't care, and it is personal for me as I did run a website for many years. All the time there would be people that felt an "entitlement" for information from a website, and use it for whatever reason.

Market Watch, I don't know them I do know folks from Dow Jones, and we have had personal conversation about the abuse. Such as do what you want until you get caught.

I posted what Market Watch has on their website as to terms of use including headlines, and snippets. Hou mentioned you would follow their wishes, and their wishes are pretty clear.

It seems some of your forum likes their stories and it is no effort to register for their RSS feed, and have it as part of your site.

You get the free feed, they get hyperlinked and ads. Win/Win
