A quick read of the couchville.com ToS didn't reveal any prohibitions  
on screen scraping, although it's possible I missed it.  Legal  
documents tend to make my eyes glaze over by the halfway point.  So it  
might actually be legal to do so for personal use.  I'm too lazy to  
put any effort into such a project myself, though.

On the other hand, that click-and-drag interface is really slick.  Is  
that AJAX and Javascript?  I'd love to see something like that in  
MythWeb.
