Why The Austin Board/eRealty Lawsuit Isn't Over Yet
(Blanche Evans - 09/15/2000)
HomeStore has a "risky scheme"

"Although nothing has been announced to this effect, Realtor.com and other aggregators may be busily creating marketing tools associated with aggregated listings that can be resold to agents who want to have listings on their Web sites, courtesy of their MLSs."
HomeStore thinks they're going to sell me my MLS's listings so I can have them on my web site and this would include my listings????
I'm still angry over having to pay for those "online relocation tools" or be at a disadvantage to those that have them if I don't.
I will not pay them to display mine, my company's, and my Association's listings and I would encourage every REALTOR in the United States to stand together in opposition to this latest "risky scheme" from HomeStore (apologies to Al Gore for borrowing his favorite line).
