That´s sad news and in more than one way.
I always liked Necro Adventures and the later mini-campaigns. That was what I was missing from WotC and to which Necro catered - good adventures. And that´s still missing.
That aside, I never cared for their rule books (Tome of Horror series, etc.) and was never into the whole 1st edition feel thing.
In my opinion, two things threw Necro out of the field: The fact that Orcus is a lawyer and seemingly understood the GSL better than the competition (or gave it more thought) and the retro-focus, quite evident in their boards and projects like 4E classic. The GSL thing can´t be helped, but what about the latter?
AlleisterH mentioned the CB, but why would this be an issue when it comes down to adventures w/o any stuff for the players?
