I get people from time to time saying they're going out of business due to piracy, tubes, laws, the planets aligning, etc. I always take a look at their website(s) and the vast majority of the time the site looks like it hasn't been updated in 5+ years. They have tours that look like they were created in 1999, if they even bother to list updates the most recent listings are from years ago, the content itself is years old, etc.
I have no idea if this applies to the site in question as I'm not familiar with it, but I see it all the time. It's much easier to blame something external rather than yourself, but reality is that those who are staying current, continuing to work & evolve, and fighting external forces as best they can are prospering. Is it a smaller number of people than it was years ago? Sure, but when something takes no effort, you have lots of people along for the ride. These days, it takes actual work.
(again, this is in no way specific to this particular site/company, it's just a general observation)
