Duplicate Content via XML Feed

[DirectoriesToday]

Hi there

We are looking at adding up to 5000 properties on to our property blog via an XML feed. Obviously these properties will come with certain descriptions and other information which will be duplicated from other websites.

Does anyone have any idea if this will count as duplicate content in Googles eyes?

Thanks
Stuart

Your best bet would be to do a search for a description and see how many results show, if its many then have them rewritten or create your own snippets via any other specs given on the Xml.
