Discovery Communications Acquires Revision3

Revision3, one of the most popular digital video providers in the world, has been acquired by Discovery Communications.  This is a huge move for Discovery and a big deal for web video creators everywhere — web video sells.  Will this be the first event in a long string of web video producer acquisitions?

The news was announced today, and AllThingsD is hearing rumors of a price tag around $30m.  The mission here is for Discovery to get a head start in web video, and expand “innovative marketing solutions for advertising partners,” according to JB Perrette, Chief Digital Officer at Discovery.
