Fully agree. Buying properties is certainly not innovative, or genius for that matter. Oracle was on a shopping spree two years ago and there was nothing genius or innovative about that move. Marissa's CEO tenure is to be determined as are all these deals that she's making. I think Hulu is a decent move for Yahoo, but the proof is in the pudding and it's all just media hype at the moment. Additionally, like you said, Hulu is run by the content companies - if they pull their content, it's worth zero. Content deals are very difficult and tricky to achieve, especially for Yahoo being non-factor in the content game (vs. companies like Apple and Amazon that have deep content deal making skills). This could be a potentially idiotic move.
