There's clearly a lot of gray area & an ongoing dilemma.
The web is great for sharing. Hooray, let's share ideas, thoughts, art, etc.!
The problem comes when the complete absence of respect/attribution for original creators or sources is taken to the Nth degree. The big winners in the wide-open-aggregator-take-anythi... equation are the hijackers, er aggregators.
"Sharing" ought to be balanced so that original creators are not removed from the equation, regardless of whether the sharing is via large news sites or smaller indie blogs.
