Rumors circulating the internet are speaking about something that will largely effect us at Live.Pirillo.com! Apparently, uStream and Microsoft are talking about a deal that would give Microsoft complete control over all the features and shows we love on uStream. While no official announcement has been made yet, the deal is rumored to be at $50 million, which is weird considering Microsoft is already in the works of buying Yahoo. At the same time, it could also lead one to think that Microsoft is taking a large dive into expanding their social network. What will Microsoft have planned for uStream, and all the shows that run? Will there be services that we actually have to pay for to use? Keep watching for detail!

Yep. saw this yesterday on techcrunch and I about fell out of my chair. Sheeesh. It appears that MSN has to be on the lookout for what independents are doing and buy their way in because they lack creativity and originality. Uggggggh.
