It'd be nice, but DG isn't going to publicly release the thing their entire
business is built upon.  If it's free, nobody will buy it.

Maybe one day they'll release a whole globe coverage of several year old
data, though. I'd imagine most customers pay for "I need yesterday's image
from location (x, y)," but I have seen a rise in uses recently for temporal
data derived from images over time so maybe not.
