True. No guarantees.<p>However, my own anecdotal evidence tells me that everything I&#x27;ve ever paid for and cared about is still in existence (even the crappy little utility-apps).<p>That&#x27;s a far higher success rate than the company in question. And sure, there&#x27;s a reason for that by the very nature of Google&#x27;s business model and strategy. Doesn&#x27;t mean I have to accept or like it.
