A lot of people (myself included) would disagree with you there. The fact that they can afford to do something like the OP is announcing is sort of proving that... I've not used any project management tool that I've liked as much as Basecamp, and I've used heaps of them.

Campfire is pretty bad though, yeah.

That doesn't really make sense to me - "they can afford to shutter their other products" (or rather, spin them off) because of how good they are?

Or, rather, that there's no significant loss to them due to shuttering, because of the (relative) lack of use.

That said, spinning off would be the -wise- idea. Most likely they'll find a good amount from a buyer based on the name and reputation.
