Re: copyright on AP's
In this case it seems to be they have copyrighted the format rather than the content - "copyright on time" implies the effort of collecting and transfering on to CD.
So if you can get the information from other sources then it's still in the public domain (or somebody elses copyright if they've done the same). Seems like a cheap trick to me - it's like those companies that sell printed copies of US Army weapons guides - you're paying for their effort of printing and binding - you can just as easily find the info on official sites for free.
