Thanks Tony, you were one I was thinking of when I said one or two 
people were adding content.

Good point about the differing categorisations, often it's not clear 
where something should be. I think the solution to that is multiple 
levels of processing. Grab the crowd-sourced data initially and then 
overwrite that with local preferences, you then get the benefit without 
the drawback.

Easy to implement too if you just use a JSON feed for the webservice and 
a local file in the same format for the overrides.
