| From the Where2sing.com forum: David: There is legal precedent... if your database were the TV channel listings that were copied they'd be the target of the Packers and the Murdochs as they consider their TV channel description listings copyright and valuable commercial property. This is despite the fact that they are published 'for free' in various newspapers, this actually incurrs a licencing fee to do. This is an interesting, related issue surrounding Electronic Program Guides for Free To Air Digital TV. So, action is not without legal precedent for a database of information.
Also, since I spend a great deal of time discovering and populating comments on venues I'm p**sed off that they are stealing the hard work put in by me and many other members of the paying where2sing.com community.
