I wake up this morning to find that Apple in talks to buy Universal Music Group!?!?!?!
According to the paper, Apple is in talks to buy Universal Music, one of the world's 'big five' record labels, from its troubled parent Vivendi. The Mac maker has yet to make a formal bid for the company, though negotiations have been continuing for the last couple of months. Apple is apparently looking to pay $5-6 billion. LA Times sources say Apple may make a bid on 29 April, when Vivendi's board is next due to meet."
Eh? Hmm. And WTF? The full story can be found here.
