Microsoft punta anche a Ustream

ustream-logo.pngMentre a Yahoo cercano di decifrare il futuro dopo l’assalto di Microsoft, secondo Valleywag la stessa Microsoft pare voler comprare Ustream per lanciarsi nei servizi di streaming per l’UGC e non.

Sources tell Valleywag that lifecasting startup Ustream.tv is in advanced discussions with Microsoft to acquire the lifecasting service for more than $50 million, but there are other companies in the bidding as well. Ustream is currently raising a very large initial round of VC financing, and Microsoft is attempting to grab them prefunding for a cheap price. Our tipster also mentions that Microsoft would use Ustream as a way to promote its Adobe Flash competitor, Silverlight. Ustream has raised around $2 million from angel investors, and seems to have hit the market at just the right time.
