Bing Maps gets another 165TB of satellite images, Google Earth seen sulking in a corner

Bing Maps gets another 165TB of satellite images, Google Earth seen sulking in a corner

Thought that Google had cornered the market on free, overhead-view photo mapping solutions. You clearly don't reside in Redmond, because Bing Maps' aerial image library just got another 165TB worth of hi-res data that covers an additional 38 million square kilometers of the globe. To put that in perspective, Microsoft's mapping solution previously had but 129TB worth of such eye-in-the-sky imagery, so this new batch of satellite shots more than doubles your viewing pleasure.
