What is the current RSS/Copyright law?

Does anyone know what the current law is regarding "Partial" (Title/Headline) RSS feeds vs. "Full Content" use?

I don't think anyone should publish full feeds. The feeds should be a pull for a site not an outsource of the site to the feed reader in my opinion. You can get alot from a headline or a snippet. If you want more then it is not too hard to click through to the site.

@ Tony Hung - you're not

@ Tony Hung - you're not crippling your reader's enjoyment. If they want to read your full blogs, they can go to your site just like everyone else does.

Ditching Full Feeds

This is something I've been testing on many of my blogs, to see how easy was to monetize RSS feeds, and if Affiliate program pomotions were able to generate more money than sponsor ads, and adsense.

The test is not finish yet... But, you niche makes a huge different on the revenue generated by RSS.

My tip: Test, track, analize, optimize....

-- but should we have to?

Sure, the practical answer is a simple one, but the broader question is should bloggers *have* to cripple their readers enjoyment so they can fight this fight on another front?

I believe the answer should be "no", but practically I have very little wherewithal to fight it to any degree, so what may end up happening is the expedient, answer not the right one, sadly. :P

Cheers
Tony.
