This is a strawman towards the actual issue which is the loss of information.

The least they could do is just provide a copy of their material to internet archive or some torrent site.

I think similarly about digital services stopping or hardware no longer getting support. Thats a fine and reasonable economy wise but at least have the moral decency to open source it instead.

The customer always gets screwed and the company somehow gets to keep the money. This case is slightly different, i don't know if you had to pay for access but my sentiment of future use holds.

If someone had to pay for it, then sure, laws should address the issue. If there's been some access time paid for remaining.
