What if you had a service that stole craigslist's data, but had a better interface and better search? You would then have a superset of Craigslist's data, but with a better experience. It would probably be illegal, but you could host it in Lower Elbonia where you wouldn't get prosecuted, like Mygazines.

there are plenty of sites that do just that, none of them gain any real traction.
