Something here doesn't make sense:

- They can afford to spend $900m on a shitty app like this that no one uses

but...

- They pay the average 31 year old engineer in Tokyo (arguably the most expensive city in the world) a measly $66K http://jobtalk.jp/company/1527_earns.html

- None of their international subsidiaries have any real traction (buy.com, play.com, kobo)

Where is this money coming from?
