Yahoo is also responsible for the destruction of my old favourite AltaVista. Not only has it recently lost the Audio and Video search features, but they have noticably become less useful following the sale of the engine to Yahoo. I think they only bought AV in order to get a hold of Babelfish, which seems to be in the same place now as it was years ago, only with new, ugly decorations.
Yahoo is becoming the equivalent in information services to EA and entertainment.
