Yeah, I know. But it's just that everyone seems so Shocked,

to discover that gambling is going on here, er, I mean that
shortwave
stations are shutting down!
Of *course* they are shutting down their broadcasts. They all will
eventually, as they move to satellit and/or internet broadcasting.
It's sad, yes, but there's no denying that it is progress.
All depends on who they want to reach. If they don't want
to reach the people in other countries who can't afford a
computer with an internet connection with enough bandwidth
for streaming, then that's their decision.
