FB might buy them too. It is sometimes hard to see why big companies buy smaller companies, no matter what you may hear from their "founders" or CEOs, VR is certainly a threat to FB (even if it's a long way away from what it promises)just the same whatsapp was. FB is nothing but a "website" on the "internet" for the mainstream, VR promises to render " websites" and the "internet" completely obsolete and irrelevant. zucky may say that his goal is to have a more connected world, I believe right now that his goal is more to not have the world "disconnect" Facebook and render it/him obsolete. Either that or he just likes to buy expensive toys!
