> AT&T acquired HBO when it bought Time Warner for USD 85.4 million

Holy crap, I didn't know this. That seems like absolute peanuts.

Edit: As pointed out, the article dropped a factor of 1000. Mildly infuriating, to the say the least. I guess they pointed it out at the end of the article, shame on me then.

That should be 85.4 billion. Seems like a misprint.

Yep, just looked it up to verify, I thought it was fishy as hell. Shame on the original article, that's such a silly misprint.
