Comment on Ziff Davis is buying CNET for just $100M

Comments

Eight-year-old me used to trawl the CNet Downloads section for hours looking for video games to play (which were more often than not bizarre half-baked DOS RPGs and adventure games). Later on I religiously checked their MP3 player reviews to see whether I should sink my hard-saved cash into a Rio Carbon or the Creative Zen Micro that I eventually bought. It's unfortunate but not unexpected to see them relegated to the second tier of internet publishing decades later.
