---- Duplicate Content Observation

If there is a dupe content filter, it is really going to hurt online businesses, because so many are selling the same products or will have similar problems listing their items for sale in a way that doesn't trup a dupe filter.

Yes, but look at it from a user's point of view: What's the value in searching for "red widgets" and finding 80 boilerplate catalog pages for the same product in the first 10 pages of search results? Wouldn't it make more sense for those duplicate pages to show up in Froogle (rather than in the mainstream SERPs), which organizes the results by price to make duplicate listings helpful to the user?
