If it's not costing like > $5MM / yr, it's unlikely someone would waste the time to turn it off, TBH.

- opencl 9y agoThis is exactly what everyone thought about Reader, and Wave, and Picnik, and Revolv...
- datguacdoh 9y agoIf Reader was running on old infrastructure, it's very possible it could have cost more than that just to maintain status quo.
- michaelt 9y agoRight, but if it requires maintenance, and it doesn't bring in enough money to cover the costs of that, turning it off might be more cost-effective than doing the maintenance. Look at Google Finance, for example - uses Adobe Flash, which is 2 years away from EOL. Presumably it's not making any money and doesn't have a maintenance budget; if it did, they'd have moved away from Flash when the iPhone came out. But when Flash hits EOL, maintenance is mandatory. Turning it off is what I'd do in that situation.
