En fait la SAQ pouvait utiliser les notes de JS gratuitement.  La SAQ a payé JS pour des capsule vidéo.

Re: Costco to no longer use WA scores in any of their warehouses!!
Our sales and business development team have been in discussions with Costco about the use of our tasting notes and scores on their shelf-talkers within their units that sell wine. As far as we’re aware a final decision hasn’t been made by Costco yet. To clarify, we allow the reproduction of our notes and scores by wine retailers with the purchase of a Commercial Subscription (as Eric pointed out), which includes a license to use our reviews within guidelines. This is nothing new, we have always required that retailers obtain a license from us for the use of our tasting notes and scores. So yes, we do charge for the general use of such content for marketing purposes and this makes up a portion of our revenue. As a reminder, at The Wine Advocate we don’t accept advertising. We also haven’t raised our personal subscription cost in many years, though we have increased our content and scope while expanding our reviewer team to include what we believe are the world’s most talented critics for their regions. We pay our reviewers a premium so that they can devote their full-time and attention to reviewing wines for you. Maintaining the best reviewers in the industry, our integrity and a reasonable subscription price all mean that we can’t afford to give anything that we produce away for free. From Costco’s perspective, what they gain from paying a small licensing fee for the general use of our reviews (we don’t charge on a per review basis) is uncompromised third party endorsement from a well-known name that wine drinkers have come to trust. No, this doesn’t apply to all their wines…but for those units that are moving towards the “fine wine” end, our reviews and scores could make a huge difference to their sales.
