<<Why doesn't CUBE buy ESST's VCD biz?>> I don't know, but it may have something to do with the antitrust laws, given that the two companies have nearly the entire VCD chip biz. The United States hates a monopoly . . .

"Why doesn't C-Cube buy the VCD biz from ESS? They are loosing their ass in VCD,
C-Cube has the cash, that in theory would bring in Shinco (aprox 30% of total VCD
biz)."

CUBE sells to Shinco too !!!!!! And from the feel of it, I bet ESST will exit the VCD business altogether, and Shinco will have to use Cube exclusively. Why bother buying anything from ESST, they stink.
