Try saying that title three times fast. Apparently Scoopt acts as a middleman that sells cellphone pics to news agencies and splits the profits with the snapshooter. Of course, wasn’t the whole point of the ‘net to cut out the middleman?

Who will take tomorrow’s front page photograph - a professional press photographer or a passer-by armed with a cameraphone?

Considering how crappy most phonecam photos look, we’re sure that pro photographers won’t have anything to worry about for awhile. Unless they live in Japan or South Korea in which cellphone cameras are already of professional level quality.
