Google’s leaked documents defining spam state:
Final Notes on Spam
When trying to decide if a page is Spam, it is helpful to ask yourself this question: if I remove the scraped (copied) content, the ads, and the links to other pages, is there anything of value left? if the answer is no, the page is probably Spam.

Many of those same lower quality sites were accepted in other directories like Business.com and the Yahoo! Directory.
