Not necessarily, I doubt TCG discontinued their site as a failure (at least I can't see why based on the ratios I was getting). Its possible that the previous domain was already very exposed and saturated and moving the production to a new name would bring about fresh new sales. Couple that with the older content rebranded under the new name and you have a new site with a large amount of content in the backend.

I do agree that a heads up would be nice, although it really didn't affect me since the old link code goes straight to the new site.
