AP Photo license?

Can anyone speak to acquiring a license (if it's even necessary) to use AP Photos on your web site? I've searched and I've searched and I've searched.

How about talking or emailing the AP folks here.

And yes, of course it's necessary. AP distributes its photos under license, and if you're not a licensee, you can't use 'em.

You might try going through AP Wide World if you haven't already. You may end up paying a per-photo fee.
