Macrovision Acquisition of TryMedia
Macrovision announced that they would spend $30M+ to acquire Trymedia, a key technology/DRM provider for the casual game sector and that it would form a video game division within the company. This shows the growing importance of the downloadable game business since Macrovision is a key security and technology to provider to much larger categories such as DVD's and Music. The important question to me is what happens to the game distribution business of Trymedia, which is typically not a part of Macrovision's business model since it arguably competes with its technology customers.
