The TLC is a media company which has been superceded by browsers' technology. Selling it seems the only way out, for a toy manufacturer, because the media of TLC contents are mostly based on DOS not Windows.

But it seems to me that interactive media content may be converted by Citrix into other formats. DVD, VCR tapes etc, would make the media content a library of valuable properties, either to sell or to continue development for interactive TV, or ASP for children and adults alike? Media content such as what is owned by TLC/MAT has its intrinsic values.

I was a stockholder of TLC. I am now a stockholder of MAT. But the new CEO should have enough technology understanding before he makes a decision about TLC. MAT can have partners to invest into the development of various formats for the TLC library, deriving handsome income.
