It's probably something to do with money - either they find that people are less addicted to them than the regular ones or they cost more to produce.

Switching from sugar to sweetener can take over a week of drinking a beverage every day before your brain finally starts liking the sweetener more than sugar. It's much too long for people - "trust us, you'll like that in a week" doesn't really work as a sales pitch. Doesn't mean companies don't try though; in my city (Kraków, Poland) there were already several Coca-Cola campaigns trying to switch people to Cola Zero. One of them included disguising cans of Zero as regular Coke, attempting to show people that they probably won't even notice the difference if they don't know they're drinking a sugarless coke.
