--- Comment #13 from Martin Renvoize <martin.renvoize at ptfs-europe.com> ---
I think we might be breaking the terms of service for ThingISBN inadvertently
before this patch.  There's a loose mention of a 1000 query limit on the
followup blog post announcing it's availability and with the removal of OCLC's
service, this could become more of a problem if libraries decide to switch.

Perhaps rather than removing the services throttle code we should switch to
using it for the ThingISBN calls?

I've reached out to Tim at LibraryThing for comment.
