I can’t tell you how many expensive ($25) apps I’ve lost because the developer decided to stop supporting it in favor of a new app, so Apple pulled it from their App Store, and it couldn’t transfer over to my next phone. And it’s not just unknown fly-by-night developers either. Adobe Photoshop did this a few years back and I never forgave them.

Nintendo has also pulled games from their eShop. And they’re notorious for discontinuing support for older systems (AND the server!) a couple of years after a newer system is released.
