If so, how much will it pay for it?

{ Imagine a sequence of bits generated from the first decimal place of the square roots of whole integers that are irrational numbers. If the decimal falls between 0 and 5, it's considered bit 0, and if it falls between 5 and 10, it's considered bit 1. This sequence from a simple integer count of contiguous irrationals and their logical decimal expansion of the first decimal place is called the 'main irrational stream.' Our goal is to design a physical and optical computing system system that can detect when this stream starts matching a specific pattern of a given size of bits. bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=166760.0 } Satoshi did use a friend class in C++ and put a comment on the code saying: "This is why people hate C++".

Why the hell would they ever buy blockchain.info if they don't even accept bitcoin, they obviously don't have faith in bitcoin and investors are already pissed they're still not turning a profit.
It could be a great strategic move to start endorsing it with top professionalism.

Blockchain.info is a free wallet service, and doesn't make Mich profit, there is no reason why Amazon should buy it. I think blockchain.info is open-source, Amazon could use the code and start there own service if they wanted to.

Well said  remotemass why stress yourself over something you kick against or reject its acceptance.

Why they should buy blockchain, I think that they will adopt bitcoin but won't buy any websites about it.

If they want to take advantage of bitcoin, they should not buy blockchain.info.
Blockchain.info should not be backed by a big corporation in my opinion (unless it's google  Cheesy)

Well, if amazon but blockchain.info
I send every bitcoin i have to another wallet & don't use blockchain.info anymore

They might buy amazon if they buy in very high prize / the founder want to sell, but the chance to happen less than 1%
And i think it won't be anonymous anymore

I don't believe they will buy blockchain.info no. They are already not accepting bitcoin anyway so purchasing this will have no purpose for them at all.

Buying blockchain.info won't bring them any profits. Not even worth their time and investment. They can however implement btc as their payment option..

And probably they are able to code from scratch in a few month, a new site with the same (and more) functions as blockchain

I agree but another question that comes to mind is why invest when there are no profits forthcoming.
