Glorious.&lt;p&gt;I am dropping my 50 cents here: I would not look at it as if Tron bought BitTorrent... I think it was the other way around: BitTorrent was financially known to not be very &amp;quot;healthy&amp;quot;. I bet it was more BitTorrent looking for mo-mo-mo-money as a valid exit!</text></comment>
