Re: Isn't this what killed @HOME?

said by Morac See Profile :

@Home was a fairly good service provider. They decided they wanted to be a content provider as well so they bought Excite. @Home then went bankrupt.

Granted Comcast is pulling in record profits from their "triple play" promotions, but at some point if you keep acquiring other companies (especially ones no one uses) you will run out of capital.
Well, too bad it's not hurting them in the stocks department. I keep making money off of their stocks...
