Dude, scraping meaning data is wild. APIs are the dream, but half the time they’re either paywalled or nonexistent.
I’ve had some wins with PyQuery—kinda like jQuery for Python. Faster than BeautifulSoup for some tasks.
Research? It’s usable if you clean it well. But expect to spend 80% of your time cleaning, 20% scraping.
For big text dumps, try TextRazor. It’s pricey but does semantic analysis pretty well.
