I'm planning to develop an application that make use of data from Yahoo Finance. I'm concerned about copyright and licensing for the use of their data.

Can anyone tell me if anyone's done something similar?

+1  A: 

The Yahoo! Finance data can be accessed via RSS feeds as described here:
http://developer.yahoo.com/finance/

In general the data is only for non-commercial use. This page explains the usage policy:
