probably due to the volume of properties that they own. they own Star Wars,they own Indiana Jones, they own Winnie the Pooh, they at one time owned part of the Muppets. they have the monopoly on the fairytale market. they pretty much own everything including most of the Marvel characters.
I don't think Disney wants to buy them, i could be wrong and maybe they do want to have a monopoly on the comic book genre.. but i'm not sure it's the best thing for Disney nor DC comics. Also the question becomes, what will happen to the comics if DC is bought up by Disney? will they kill off a line of comics in order to push another (ie kill off X Men to push Inhumans?).
I think if anything, maybe Universal could be interested because they can't really do anything with The Hulk so why not buy properties that they can work with outright instead of begging for permission to make a solo Hulk movie?
Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today.
