Samsung Weighs Buying SanDisk


The Samsung Electronics Company, the memory chip maker, said Friday
that it might buy a flash memory maker, SanDisk, in a deal that could
reshape a struggling industry.
An acquisition of SanDisk would expand Samsung's market share at a
time when prices for flash memory, used in products like digital
cameras, cellphones and music players, are falling sharply. The deal
would also reduce Samsung's licensing costs.
