According to the rumor mill coming out of the DLD Conference, European based video sharing site Dailymotion appears to be in acquisition talks. Or, at the very least, it appears the Orange will be acquiring 30-50 percent of the company with the official announcement to come tomorrow (25 January).
Telecompaper states that the move is being investigated in order to strengthen the financial aspect of Dailymotion. From what were seeing, reports are stating that the entire acquisition should fall below the 75M range. For Orange, you can expect to see increased advertising on Dailymotion videos for the company.
Were seeing reports, as well, that Orange might integrate Dailymotion into its Livebox and likely even smartphone services in order to bolster interactivity.
Weve sent an email to the parties involved and were awaiting comment. Well update when we have more information.
