Some of it reads the same, some of it is incorrect applied to Intuit.

The notion that processing is a different kind of business still applies - though a little less so for Intuit than Yahoo. Intuit is not primarily a channel/distribution business (though it is becoming rather more so).

As far as being a 'captive' processor if owned by Intuit - Intuit is not directly competing with the multiple different distribution channels we're talking about here. (Yahoo and banks might take a slightly different view).

After writing this though, I'm not really sure it was worth it. Nobody is even suggesting an Intuit deal.
