> You can even be a paid movie critic and base your opinions on IMDB just fine. But if you build a website that says "I'll give you my opinion about a film for £5" and it's just based on the input from IMBD I'm sure we can both agree that you crossed the line

I don't agree with this assessment at all. Why would it be fine to be a paid movie critic basic your opinions on IMDB but not for a website to the same?

Because the critic develops their own opinion on what they read from IMDB and even if they only ever learnt from IMDB and nothing else it's their own take on it. LLMs don't have their own take on anything - it's a statistical amalgamation of everything they read but they don't have their own personal identity or opininion. Likewise, providing a paid service website that only has one data source means you are just selling that data back without permission.
