It's a shame, but also unsurprising. I have a soft spot for Sam and Max and Monkey Island so I'll probably rescue them off my account before their servers go down. Everything else I got won't be missed.

I strongly doubt their catalogue is going to completely disappear; if they don't get bought out/acquired (I'd bet by 2k, WB, or Ubi), then they'll have to go bankrupt, and when that happens the licensed IP games and their assets will probably go to the IP owners who'll be able to make use of them, a la how Viacom can sell Star Trek 25th Anniversary and Judgement Rites on Steam long after Interplay's death. (Wonder when they'll put up the Spectrum Holobyte TNG game, never got to play that one.)

I'm sure, but that would almost certainly mean buying them again and there's no way I'm doing that. In retrospect I should have bought them on Steam to avoid the issue entirely but at the time I felt like I should support them directly. Alas.
