IGN Buys RottenTomatoes







IGN Buys RottenTomatoes

IGN Buys RottenTomatoes 06/29/2004 12:11 PM

Two sites quite popular with the always-popular-among-advertisers young male demographic are merging. Game site IGN is buying popular movie review site RottenTomatoes. Seems like a good deal for everyone involved. RottenTomatoes is one of the most useful sites online for anyone who likes to watch movies and wants a quick aggregate view of what people think of a movie without having to worry about spoilers. There have been times when I've even wandered the video store with RottenTomatoes open on my phone in order to pick a good movie to rent. Of course, with that in mind, perhaps NetFlix would have been a more sensible buyer.

CNET Buys MP3.com


CNET Buys MP3.com 11/14/2003 04:41 AM
Back in July we mentioned that Vivendi Universal was despa rately looking to sell of MP3.com (among other assets). Now, according to GnutellaNews, CNET has bought certain assets of MP3.com. This is a bit of a surprise, but could be a good thing. It's a bit outside of CNET's typical business lines, but not completely out of left field. Also, CNET has a history of not being evil about most of these things (they've never done pop-ups, and they don't lock up content or change URLs - and their reporting has always been some of the best in the tech world). However, it looks like CNET will be starting from scratch on this one, as the notice to subscribers says that MP3.com's servers will be wiped out, suggesting CNET just bought the domain (and possibly the subscriber list).

Yahoo's could not do it on their own so they had to buy one of my most favored music vendors. I have always been a big fan of Musicmatch and now that Yahoo has just bought them out I am sure they will ruin it. I stopped using Yahoo and brands they own when they went to a pay model on listing your site with them. I wonder if my Lifetime upgrade of Musicmatch will be honored. [News.co m]
