    Using RSS feeds as site content is it legal?

    Hi there.

    I'v just started a new website and apart from unique content which i am putting on the site i also want to know if i can use RSS feeds? Isnt it just like stealing content?







    I have seen many sites using it. Also will it harm my site badly due to the fact that it is duplicate content?

    I've seen many many people doing this but I can't say whether it is legal or not because I'm no expert on this field. I think if someone allows RSS feed on his website it's legal for you to pick it up and display it on your website as long as you don't don't make any changes whatsoever, give all credits to the author (name, link...) and don't charge for the content.



    Notifying the author would be appropriate also.



    I've seen a lot of blogs using RSS feeds as content from other blogs and websites which don't forbid distribution of articles (for example Woopidoo has a line after every article: This article by David Bond may not be reproduced online in part or whole. Copyright © Woopidoo.com.



    But ofcourse they don't have the RSS feed feature. I'm just saying watch out for warnings.
