Of all things I read about copyright law (IANAL but very interested), this is not what I have been told... in NL there is the provision that allows to replicate a database if the content is aggregated independently (the famous case is the Dutch phonebook which was manually copied in India; sorry cannot find an online description quickly).
First I should rectify my own statement, as I have been pointed that it's not the quantity, but the qualitative significance of the transfer that matters. I'm interested to learn more about the case you are referring to, if you can find some link.
Without more contest, I would interpret "content aggregated independently" as create a data collection from scratch out of many sources, and the current thread doesn't pertain to that kind of cases. The issue treated here is "transferring significant data set directly from an already constituted data collection".
