Four billion dollars for a bunch of RealAudio servers?? This Nintendo
capitalism has gone too far! Where is the brand? Where is the
traffic? Where is the bandwidth?

Yahoo in talks to buy Broadcast.com
Late Monday, the Wall Street Journal reported in its online issue that
Yahoo was considering paying up to $120 a share, or about $4.1 billion,
for Broadcast.com, which went public in July.

Source close to Yahoo said the company could announce an agreement to
buy Broadcast.com within days, but added that the large price tag on the
deal might still derail it. Broadcast.com, another Internet company that
is losing money, is valued at about $1.8 billion, based on its closing
price Monday.
