copyright: JUST BECAUSE IT'S FREE DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REPUBLISH! READ THE TERMS OF USE!! When they are ambiguous, be careful. It may be a trap. - 12/24/11 05:32 AM

REPRINT OR REPUBLISH????
There is a big difference.
Matt Stigliano describes the use of HouseLogic content. So, being the inquisitive person I am when reading about copyright matters, I visited the site and READ THE GUIDELINES.
Interesting that the guidelines refer to "REPRINT" and not "REPUBLISH". Big difference.

copyright: Your Local MLS. Friend or Foe? - 05/22/10 06:28 AM
MRIS is, IMO, a great MLS system.
There is a big difference between owning a listing, which MRIS does not, and owning the published listing reportcontained in the MRIS display.
