Hello,
Google does not ban duplicated content site.
I have seen so many sites and there are some sites of mine whch use Duplicated content, but its not banned its on #2 position in google msn and yahoo for its keyword.
No one is sure or there is no proof that duplicated content is banned.. if that was so then all Press release and article sites have been banned till now.
Good Luck
