Skype investor says web firm should stay independent
Astrid Wendlandt writes for Reuters:
A top shareholder in Skype said on Monday it wants to see the fast-growing Internet telecoms software firm stay independent after a report of failed takeover talks with media mogul Rupert Murdoch's News Corp..
"The company (Skype) is worth a lot more independent," said Timothy Draper, managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson, a Californian venture capital firm which he says owns between 10 and 20 percent of Skype.
"I would prefer that it (Skype) remains independent," Draper told Reuters in a telephone interview.
