Gartner to Buy AMR: Do Fewer Analyst Firms Matter?

Do traditional analyst firms still matter, regardless of how many or few there are? To whom? Why or why not?

The problem is with analysis as a concept. Analysis is really working through real business issues based on actual data.
These "analysis" firms, are glorified survey mongers and the quality of the underlying data is highly suspect.
So who cares about another merger? It's not going to truly improve or worsen the quality of market data, the data is innaccurate from the off.
