BBG's competitive advantage is not data - in fact, it's pretty mediocre. Any reasonably large player sources their own data feeds due to too many holes in the former. BBG's killer features are support and _chat_ - chat with other _trusted_ counterparties who also paid the admission price.

True for market data - exchange feeds will always be better. They are good on historical data and reference data though.
