Nice. But 100 million is cheap to buy annual revenues of 42 million. Really cheap. I'd expect that either that there is nil profit there, or that the actual sale price will be considerably higher. Had no idea they had a new download manager. I need to keep up. So much good info, here. Nice. But 100 million is cheap to buy annual revenues of 42 million. Really cheap.

I agree that eMusic's not making any significant money in terms of profit. But then no one else in the digital music business is making large profits, including Apple. I think the significance for digital music (and a possible eMusic acquisition) in the case of Amazon is more in the opportunities for up-selling and cross-selling.

Maybe that's what they gross, but it can't be what they net. Last we heard they weren't turning a profit. Emusic making $14 per month per customer?
