---- Ruling Handed Down in Danish Deep Linking Case

It's kind of a fine line, I guess. Newsbooster is really more of a paid search engine rather than a content provider. I think what they are doing is fine, and my guess is that they are providing a net traffic increase to those sites. Now if Newsbooster opened the content in their own frame, or attepted to disguise where the content was from, that would be a different story.

If I had an online newspaper, I'd welcome anything that brought me traffic from visitors that would have been unlikely to visit otherwise. (Of course, these Danish news sites might not need the traffic. I know when there's breaking news I always check The Copenhagen Times right before I head to CNN.com. ;))
