Unfortunately a large number of affiliates create cookie cutter sites that offer no value to surfers, or the content on them can be found on thousands of other websites.

Content curation is different - it's the manual or algorithmic selection then presentation of content in a way that provides added value to the end user. One of several reasons Google provides added value because it's one of the most popular sites on the web and having a news tab is valuable to many people.
