Sorry if this has been brought up already, but I didn't find it anywhere on here.

I was just wondering if anyone noticed that WWWThreads has been bought by Infopop, makers of what seems to be the most popular bbs system, the UBB.

I find it somewhat interesting that they would want a new system. I guess it's just a good way of controlling your competition. WWWThreads is the only message board system that I can tolerate aside from the UBB, so I guess it's natural that the two are owned by the same company now. Infopop says that they'll continue supporting the "UBBThreads" as it's now called, but then again, Sonicblue said they'd continue to support the "Riocar"
