The beloved TV-tracking app used by millions to log episodes and get recommendations for 15 years. Shut down so its parent company could refocus on AI products. It is one of the clearest cases of a healthy, loved product dying from its owner chasing the AI gold rush rather than from AI competition.

Collateral damage: Fifteen years of user watch history, ratings, and social connections lost unless manually exported before shutdown.
