This is why web 2.0 contains the seeds of its own destruction. Everyone writes web-2.0 apps by scraping web-1.5 pages (the ones that use <div>s to define structure instead of just using <p>s to define formatting) but they produce pages that can't be scraped. If ever a substantial fraction of the web becomes 2.0, it will collapse from the lack of 1.5 pages to scrape. The solution, of course, is the exhibit model, where the data is naked and can be scraped no matter how much you dress up the presentations.
