I think they were asking for 2 billion. They turned down a 780 mil offer or something. What did myspace go for like 700 mil?

580 million. Now worth around 3-4 billion by facebook's standards.

Funny thing is facebook will probably get the 2bil sooner or later it is asking for.

It'll probably get bought by a TV network as did Myspace. TV networks already control the U.S. media. I'm sure they'd want to control this..
