The aerial pictures on Google are more recent than MS. I live in Pittsburgh and MS still has photos that include Three Rivers Stadium and not PNC Park, and Heinz Filed that exist there now.
Funniest part about that is that they have labels for PNC Park and Heinz Field overlaying the areas that were developed for both stadiums. I used to look at photos back in the day when Terraserver first came out which is where the MS phots come from, and those are at least 8-10 years old.
Come on Microsoft, if you want to oooohh and aaaahhh us with some nifty new mapping service, at least spend some $$$$$$ and update your satellite photos.
