To put it another way, why is a calendar application worth $100 million?
- georgespencer 12y agoThat is a much better way of phrasing the question. It's almost certainly because of some combination of the following factors: 1. Widespread usage, 2. Interesting, novel, or useful technology, 3. Strategic importance to the acquirer. It's a bit like asking why the transfer of a soccer player costs $100,000,000. It's because someone is willing to pay it.
