Yeah, but both of those essentially copied existing or previous models, for example, craigslist is a lot like those old "pennysavor" newsprinted listings, not pretty but functional and didn't try to improve, just emulate with enhancements - or look at all the people that copied Bang Bros... when in fact they had just copied old brick and morter style producers like Bus Stop Tales and Buttman, etc.
