Do you think websites which post mostly/only duplicate content, or " copy and paste content" is maki

If someone copied and paste an article from another huge website like ABC.com,ESPN, SpikeTV, Time Warner, Perez Hilton, ett, some visitors might think the webmaster is not putting enough work in to their website content.

Some people also may think a website is one of those automated scraping websites with no active webmaster which automatically go on the internet and automatically copy and paste people's website articles and post them as their own content.

But, if the webmaster copied and paste an article onto a website, and added some commentary or an opinion of the article which they pasted on to their website then it will be more interesting.

I believe many users mostly care about the webmaster's opinion on a topic like "Kodak Digital Camera reviews" rather then the topic itself in many cases since they might of read the article on another site, magazine, or heard about the topic on TV already.

Well, reposting an article is fine as long as credit is given and have the publisher or author's permission. Yes, It gives The impression that the webmaster is lazy or boring, but at least it is promoting other publishers and web sites. However, I'd rather have original news articles made from scratch by the web master themselves and have their own input and opinions.
