Where they can get away with that is that the paid inclusion results don't get preferential treatment. They get ranked by the same algo, but slurp crawls based upon the feed to ensure that those pages are included. But they're kept in a seperate index, so if the money runs out, they aren't included in the results any more. Not something that I'm going to pay for, especially if I'm ranking in Yahoo at all right now.

Especially when I get tons of Slurp spider traffic from feeding XML or text files to Yahoo! Site Explorer.
