Oh, whoops! Sorry. Man am I wound up. Again, my apologies. The moral is, don't post to me today unless you are prepared for a fight. (where the is no disagreement in the first place... :-/)

I guess it depends on how you define 'bought.' My understanding is that disney purchased a minority interest in seek (about 40%), with an option to acquire it at a future date (which I don't believe has been exercised yet). However, disney did in fact first purchase Starwave for around $350M, and then sold it to seek as part of it's minority acquisition of seek.

If anything has changed, i'm sure I'll hear it here first!
