[http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20050718/wr\_nm/media\_newscorp\_dc\_2](http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20050718/wr_nm/media_newscorp_dc_2) > The deal comes after News Corp., home to the Fox television network, Fox News and 20th Century Fox film studios, announced on Friday the creation of an Internet division to hold the company’s sports, news and entertainment sites. > > News Corp. will pay $12 a share, a 12 percent premium over Intermix’s closing price on the American Stock Exchange on Friday. Accordingly, Intermix shares rose 9.6 percent to $11.75 in Monday trading. Figured out to be about $300 per current member. I think they maybe overpaid? :smash2: ---

That’s a LOT per member… I hope those banner ads are $1 per view and $2 per click.
