It’s a good thing that Samsung didn’t buy SanDisk – for us at least
by Matt Burns on September 23, 2008

Have ya noticed that the price of flash memory keeps dropping? Apparently, everyone and their brother built plants to manufacture the memory and now the market is over saturated causing the prices to drop. Flash memory insiders were hoping that the SanDisk acquisition by Samsung would stimulate the industry and stabilize prices. Is that what we want as consumers? Stabilized prices? I sure don’t see the downside. Tell me why I wouldn’t want a 32GB thumb-drive for $30?
