Very interesting...


I used them back when it WAS free.  Several months ago I had a different
project and went back to moreover.com but couldn't find the feeds.  I
ended up using a different source instead.


Yes, it certainly is interesting that the page is still available (for
all to find via a Google search).  The feed page does say that you
agreed to their terms of service.  I didn't read their TOS but you're
probably right... I'm sure it probably says something about having to
pay for it (shrug).


Still, I find it very strange that they'd even offer it they way they're
offering it.  You'd think some form of authentication would have been
implemented if they didn't want to give it for free.  Maybe that would
have broke too many existing apps?  Who knows.


Thanks for the heads up...

you can't find this from their home page because moreover doesn't offer
free feeds anymore.

yes, this page works (and WHY it's still so accessible, I have no
idea)...but using the information off of it is stealing content.

I've found this page in the past, and since the info seemed to be up to
date and working, assumed this was free content.  I wanted to make sure
that it was legit, so I e-mailed moreover asking, and received a
response that clearly stated they no longer offered free feeds.

take that for whatever it's worth  : )

  Not sure why I can't seem to find this from their home page... but a
  search on Google turned up the page I was talking about earlier:

  http://w.moreover.com/categories/category_list_xml.html

  Tons of news to choose from... seems to still be up to date and
  working...

  Assuming News Feeds means News Feeds. ;) Yahoo has a limited number of
  RSS-based news feeds:

  http://news.yahoo.com/rss <http://news.yahoo.com/rss>

  HTH,
