This article and other discussions I've seen about this content removal trend seems to put the blame mostly on a tax loophole. I don't really understand it, but what I think is basically happening is the company does a calculation that the show/movie will make them basically no money but taking a loss on it by trashing it will earn them a larger discount on their taxes.

This is why we can't have nice things. Corporations are evil. Goodnight.
