if you can package it to the clients need, "private label it", patent it, which is what infospace does, you can sell it.

the problem is no one will pay you a lot of money for this freely available content, (read low revenue, low margins) which means less competition too.

Priamry proof of this is the long list of agreements and clients that have signed with INSP in the last few months, but no big increase in the top line. You can run a business like this, live within your means and even break even or make a few pannies. Does that mean you should be a 2Bil $ company and trade at 100x sales ? No.

INSP is a great short at this price too. Only thing that can go against you is a buyout in stock by a like of Yahoo which could? place a premium on the stock price. Other than that I would short it and sleep ovwer it.
