But, I want to point out the following from Yahoo's License:
10. NO RESALE OF SERVICE
You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell,
resell or exploit for any
commercial purposes, any portion of the Service, use of
the Service, or access
to the Service.
So, if you're setting up somebody that will be selling advertising, etc,
you'll have to sublicense the data from Yahoo. It's pretty nasty really,
but I wanted to point it out.
