Ace3 is not GPL. Authors are not forced into any license when embedding Ace3, this is very much by design.

Its called "RSS"

Everyone does nowadays.
WoWI and Curse have had RSS since long before WM existed. WM didn't use it, don't ***** at WoWI and Curse for that.

The thing that people like you keep missing (or more likely, intentionally ignoring) is that the sites are not trying to pad their profit margins. They are trying to break even. If you want to vilify people as money-grubbing *******s that are using Blizzard's IP to make money, why don't you go after the paid guide people? They make a *lot* of profit off their stuff, and they don't give anything away for free.
