Which is the part that really annoys me. The owner would much rather shut it off than selling it or letting others to run even in archive mode.
I recently learned CGTalk was completely shut down and ALL the information shared over the pass 20 years are gone. It never received the attention like DPreview. There are plenty of other examples where forum owner no longer wants the burden of owning it.
It really is a sad state of things.
Is there a site or exchange somewhere where owner could sell their site or at least put up a whole archive as asset?
