This was an interesting watch www.ginside.com/2011/4342/google-and-bing-go-head-to-head/
They should learn how to crawl the web properly, that or just pay Google for search results.
Anything printed in the article might as well be void when doing independent testing, due to that many websites are reproducing the exact content, thus giving inflated results.They do crawl the web properly. I was, am not, able to reproduce this under the conditions given to me.

Google, themselves, created false pages, used the Bing Toolbar, and Googled those fake keywords. The Toolbars, in turn, sent the data back to Bing/Micro$oft, which collected the info and submitted it as its own with those given fake keywords. Not really sure how you could reproduce that...
Bing (as a search engine) has always had the: © Microsoft on the site, so not sure how it could have been owned by Apple.
Not sure how it would be improved procedure if it takes the exact results from Google.com's search page, places it as it's own, without actually crawling for the contents for the keywords (Google placed the keywords into the database themselves, the sites had no information pertaining to the keywords).
If they had crawled for the keywords, then I really wouldn't see a problem, that would have been just an additional way for them to collect data to have their "bots" crawl for the proper data/keywords using their algorithm.
LOL.To me, that's not copying, that an improvement procedure.
That's stealing. They need to show a "Powered By Google" for that relationship.If looks like Bing is use Google as an authoritative source of information.
The only association between that search string and the result was a bogus association Google planted in their own database.How do we know that Bing hadn't already received that search string before the search was done by Google?
Google purposely picked words that it was unlikely anyone was going to search for. What is the likelihood that they happened to search these terms on Bing beforehand, but Bing didn't display it because it wasn't sure about it?Read what I said. I didn't say it was owned by Apple.
How do we know that Bing hadn't already received that search string before the search was done by Google? Can you confirm that all that's happening here is that the toolbar sees the search item, informs Bing. Then Bing checks to see if its there or not, then, submits it to the "Google copy" queue, as per se?
If looks like Bing is use Google as an authoritative source of information.
