What is "broadcast.com"

Broadcast.com was an Internet radio company founded as AudioNet in September 1995 by Christopher Jaeb. Todd Wagner and Mark Cuban later led the organization and eventually sold to Yahoo! on April 1, 1999 for $5.7 billion, making it the most expensive acquisition Yahoo! has made for which prices are publicly known. The service has since been disbanded and some of its functionality incorporated into other services, some of which (such as Yahoo! Music Radio) have since been disbanded.
