As a user, if some other search engine can serve results that are better than Google, I'd be happy to use it. I've tried duckduckgo, the results are disappointing and often mis-intepreted what I intended to search. So I kept coming back to Google.
Will Google be willing to open its indexes? Probably not at their best interest, because it will help its competitors?

Right now I'm studying the MySpace Dragon Hoard, and I'll soon write a blog post with maps of music genres around the world.
