‘MyHooSoft’ better than ‘AolHoo’
p2pnet news | Products:- Who’ll emerge victorious in the battle to possess Yahoo?
Bill and the Boyz.
At least, that would seem to be opinion of Pali Research’s Rich Greenfield.
“Given the weakening state of premium display advertising, we are hard pressed to see shareholder value maximized through an AOL/YHOO merger (beyond short-term cost-savings); with AOL employees (and TWX investors) realizing that even their senior mgmt now believes their long-term prospects are grim on a stand-alone basis,” he blogs, going on >>>
At the end of the day, MSFT has the balance sheet to bid virtually any price for YHOO and we simply cannot imagine them losing out to AOL, with potential stakes in Myspace (and Facebook) giving them significant insight into the world of social media and advertising.
Unclear where a MSFT/YHOO/Myspace combination would leave Facebook – but MSFT would certainly become a real “player” in today’s digital media landscape with a shot (however, long) of rivaling Google. While AOL (and in turn, Time Warner) ends up as the biggest loser with no obvious partners left and a stronger competitor.”
Stay tuned.

Forgive my stupidity, but can anyone tell me why Yahoo have to sell at all, why not just stay as they are?
It seems as though they are forced by something/one to sell.
Microshaft (yes I am biased) said something about a unfriendly buy out.
Please someone explain…
