Apple needs to spend

Apple has been sitting to long of some huge cash reserves. They should buy something or diversify that money reserve this year before inflation kills that reserve.

What should Apple buy? Think big. I say this because I believe Apple should buy Adobe.

Has Apple ever bought anyone, other than NeXT?

Another idea should be Apple buying Sling Media and incorporate it with AppleTV.

Check out the link in Satcomer's reply. In short, access your own TV (and associated cable signal, recorded shows, etc) from anywhere in the world via internet.
