Digital BW, The Print

I'm not disputing the value as it is a well designed site... just the
legality. If you check the Yahoo statements on Privacy, Intellectual
copyright, etc you can see that this is illegal. Yahoo makes a commitment
that your intellectual copyright and privacy will not be violated and lists
numerous examples.
As to your question (and I've done, and still do,  research for people) If
you use a printed extract from any source you have to get permission and pay
a fee. This has not happened.
