Looks like Google checkmates Microsoft's AdCenter?

The deal I want to know about...: Is the one that ended the Google embargo of CNet.

But back to the subject in question. Let's see, Google was getting $500M annually from AOL. Now they get $100M by handing back 80% of revenue, plus a cash outlay of $1B for a 5% stake in a shrinking company.

Over a, say, 5-year period they lose 3 billion and get back $500M or maybe a little more (depending on how slowly AOL dies).

Granted, it's a short-term hurt on MS AdCenter, but where will Google's P/E be in 5 years?; Posted by: broper Posted on: 12/17/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
