What were these $15M in Q1 digital acquisitions?

From the new 10-Q report, filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (emphasis added):

"Cash flows used in the company’s investing activities totaled $16 million for the three months of 2010, reflecting $9 million of capital spending, $15 million of payments for certain digital business acquisitions, and $3 million for investments."
