Isn't this essentially the dynamic that led to that massive legal action you showed me a couple years back. I am sure you have the link to the story somewhere in your racing library....

Anytime you use something that the racing information giants (DRF,Equibase)
provide for free to the public that either 1) turns a potential profit said mega corp is getting none of 2) Is being sold for potential profit that is dependent on the accuracy of their product (e.g. charts)

The big boys don't want you making a business out of their business without you paying a vig so to speak. It's always about the Benjammins!!!!!

Never understood why most of this information is not free to begin with. I'm all for charging for the PP's but make all the other crap free.

Greed. Pure and simple.

Won't be long until someone is able to charge you for the air you're breathing.
