When in doubt, ask the source. I'm of the opinion, however, that including the URL of a feed as part of a default or 'jumpstart' collection provided with a tool isn't the sort of problem they're seeking to use a license to guard against. After all, what feeds are after is an audience. Being restrictive of how someone might share the existence of the URL would seem counterproductive. Also consider that you can use our service via web service calls and personal lists. You could, perhaps, create a personal list and use that as an online 'live source' of feeds for your reader program. > Does that also mean that a company cannot maintain and > provide a feedlist which had these as entries?
