Yet they aren't, as far as I can see. That's what puzzles
me. I get 20 different news feeds. Several other stocks
I hold are on alert status in the portfolio that can be filled
in as part of the site. (Seeking Alpha, Motley Fool are two).
Since this business started with Atrinsic, I have had pure
gossip as well as real news, like class action suits, that
have resulted in reports I have received, on stocks that
are no where near in the limelight. Why complete silence
is just unbelievable..

Maybe but to what avail? With so many theories here, they can't all be right. If the deal is done it wouldn't make a difference what they did. If their competitors knew of a buyout that could eventually hurt them...why not buy up as many cheap shares as you could? Possibly drive it down and cause ATRN's clients to question them?? Maybe. This 500+ list of ATRN's clients is quite impressive but what constitutes a client? How much are they paying for the service they receive? If I were to fill my tank at the gas station, am I now not a client?

There's great potential here but given how little we really know, the potential for disaster is just as big. If I were trying to impress someone, would I also list my failures or just focus on my successes? They can't talk about what's going on right now, correct? What if let's say, the Adidas VP if marketing decided to give Atrinsic a call and ask what's going on? I know they probably wouldn't. Especially if the amount their really paying them is peanuts. Maybe a better route to figure this out would be to call one of Atrinsics smaller clients and ask what Atrinsic has done for them and if they were aware of any pending changes. There's certain things that prevent me from digging too deep into some of these companies, but I'm just saying. The brick wall may be a little softer.
