This still makes me uncomfortable. If someone considered reputable opens a book and all the players are happy, but it's hosted by WSEX or Cascade, does that book deserve a high rating? Why should Lenny or JC or Jazz Mike get to hide behind someone else and keep profiting while their own players go penniless?

100% agree with this, i don't understand how Betislands can have such a high rating after
a) not being around for more than a few years max. (i didn't follow when exactly, but never heared about 'em when Jazz was still an ok book)
b) sitting in the same building as an almost-stiff book

Simple, the owner of BetIslands IS financially sound. BI outsourced its services to Jazz who provides its software and call center services for a fee.

Jazz is going through a rough patch. BI is an entirely different company and a safe out.

As far as time in service, I have no answer for you. If SBR is confident in its rating you should feel pretty safe betting there.

No...

What you see are search results from a newswire in 2008.

It's a good catch, we're adding their rating page and of course it will be rated same as JazzSports/ABC Islands/Looselines etc.

There is a vanishingly small chance that Jazz isn't taking some part of the action. Even a pure PPH deal is still associating with and benefiting a stiff book.
