Re: bg & myspace

OK, here's the real question. Will it remain on BD.Net after the acquisition
(which was based on target demographics, not technical merit) or will it be
moved to something else?

I can only assume you mean the Adobe acquisition.

How would that affect MySPace choosing BD?  Is it possible Adobe won;t play nice with NW?

No, I mean the News.corp acquisition of myspace.

Basically, News.Corp liked the demographics that myspace covered and bought them out for $580 million.

I asked that back when the acquisition was announced...I guess that
depends on the contract mySpace set up with BD.
