America Online (AOL) acquired Spinner.com and Nullsoft today for $400 million. Spinner.com is one of the leading net radio companies, while Nullsoft develops the popular market-leading WinAmp MP3 player. Look for AOL to leverage these firms' products and technology across AOL.com, ICQ, and Compuserve customer bases. This is AOL entrance into the digital music media game with a very anti-Microsoft vote to Mp3. America Online has become the latest to get into the online music business, with acquisitions today of Net radio firm Spinner.com and music technology company Nullsoft. The stock-for-stock transactions are valued at about $400 million and will be accounted for as pooling of interests, according to AOL. AOL's moves are designed to give it a leg up in the online music space, which has seen tremendous activity of late. The acquisitions will make "next-generation music features available to consumers of all its brands, providing a wide range of new audio and other applications and functionality to its partners, and [will help] to develop key music capabilities for AOL Anywhere devices and broadband initiatives in the future," AOL said in a statement. - News.com
