A contact in Microsoft said that the Bing imagery is made up of multiple
images which results in the date range.

The imagery we are getting has improved over time, although it seems at a
snails pace. I'm sure if we were paying for imagery we would have different
requirements. Bing probably wants nice looking - with lots of green
vegetation. Our needs would be better served by leaf off imagery. So if
someone wants to start fund raising, we could have imagery that better fits
our needs.
