O'Reilly has a nifty feature that displays the top 20 search terms on
their various sites using terms that someone typed into a search

The xISBN web site clarifies this as meaning = 500 queries per day for
non-commercial purposes. Over 500 queries in a day for non-commercial

Interesting.
Thom Hickey commented a while ago about LibX's use of xISBN (*): I
suspect that eventually the LibX xISBN support will become both less

License agreements can restrict just about anything the agreement wants

As long as LibX is free and not being used as a way to drive Amazon
revenue, I don't see how it could be considered to be commercial.

Yeah, that's a good point, Eric.
