I personally thought it was all very strange. He did not need the boards permission or acceptance to run the company, and had he/Manwin kept a low profile he would probably still be happily hoovering up the traffic and companies in this sector. I don't think anyone would suggest that this "buyout" was done because he wanted to leave at this moment. It was clearly forced upon him/them by other events.

I would never discuss the profitability or corporate and tax structure of any venture online. Telling the whole world how fabulously wealthy and brilliant you are, with no obvious source of that wealth, is never going to amuse the powers that be, never mind the people who have been fucked over on the way up.

I mean come on - spending your day on GFY (an affiliate board) telling a massive group of disgruntled content producers and affiliates how you have destroyed their livelihoods and made millions in the process is never going to be received well. (ask JT) You can just imagine how many anonymous emails were fired off daily to the powers that be.
