Subject: RE: Blizzard

Valve already tried to hire him a while ago from what I understood from a podcast interview. Doesn't sound like he's that interested in them and more interested in making his own company.

I mean why be an employee making a wage when you can make millions outright through online delivery of your own games. I know he's not the norm for success of indie games but I think it's definitely inspirational.

if blizzard wanted to purchase his game, they'd have to fork out a bunch o cash. Of course they also have the option of building their own game out of the original open sourced freeware game called Infiniminer that Minecraft is based on (and used some source from).
