I don't think so. Copyright is not based on the physical path that data has traveled. For example, there's dual-licensed software where you can either use it under GPL or pay for a commercial license. You don't have to re-download the software when you switch from GPL to commercial - you just pay the price and get a piece of paper that says you can now use the software under another license. Often there won't even be a separate download link.

It is perfectly sufficient if someone agrees to ODbL, we can then take his data from our existing database.

Bye
Frederik
