plfm, dd... to my knowledge

ARAY does not have a poison pill plan (it has never been mentioned nor discussed) in place & insiders only control about 25% of the stock. Institutional ownership is about 42%.

The fund holders would be the swing vote... if the funds ain't happy & management loses their support, there will be votes sufficient to change Board members in favor of those willing to clean out management's FLEAS(*)!

I think the disgrntled owners on these types of stock discussion boards can account for 9% & possibly much more.

*("Fellows Less Enthusaiatic and Successful" than stockholders expect to be in charge & drawing the big $$$$$$$$$$!)

By the way, the blinkx looks to be a good spec for a small amount of funds you can afford to risk it all and hold long term... looks like an eventual buy out to me by somebody. Much like the excitement of Yahoo events of the last few weeks.

I also heard about HULU.com recently... don't know if it is publicly traded or not... have not taken the time to investigate. I suspect it is still privately owned. It offers free content of old TV shows in their entirety in some cases. Quite an option compared to buying all the DVDs of old seasons!
