When your business is content then, of course, you're are going to get upset and persue copyright theft through the court system. Totally aside from web publishing, just considering paper publishing. The Press Association and other agencies that provide this kind of content (text or photographic) gets _very_ upset if you use or even keep a photograph that is their property. Use without prior consent has been known to cost tens of thousands of pounds. Anyway, enough of this! This thread has detracted from it original course and is now off topic for CF-Talk.
