Re: Nik Bought out by Google

2012-09-21 by Myron Gochnauer

We can only wait and see how the loss of independence plays itself out.  

It *appears* that Nik Software was economically viable before it began marketing Snap, so Google has *some* incentive to maintain or even expand those non-Snap products, or at the very least entertain a buyout of these other products.  Nik has a good reputation and great brand recognition. Google should be smart enough not to waste those things just to acquire Snap.

My fingers are crossed.
