Re: Loop with IMDB::Film

I know this may be offtopic, but: since the IMDB database is public domain/open source, is there a server somewhere which can provide the data in a more structured (machine readable) format, instead of having to rely on screen scraping?

You mean like their publicly downloadable databases in a variety of formats? -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply]

I alwasy thought it would be cool to server up IMDB content in CDDB style. That way programs could grab currnet movie info from a stable source with uniform format. I bet IMDBs database distribution could be used for that.	[reply]
