It still makes a few dollars. New players are born every day. The original Half Life has a lot of sentimental value for the company and they won't let it rot.

fwiw, to your first point, they're also giving HL1 away for free (to keep) right now.

Don't these new players mostly buy newer games? I know GOG exists but I guess there are few people who buy games older than themselves.
