Windows XP : could not miss. Microsoft’s decision to discontinue support for this operating system has made millions of users around the world stop using it, starting to make use of more modern versions like Windows 7 or 8 / 8.1. Considered the best version of Windows yet, no doubt we will miss XP.

justin.tv : this was a popular website where you could access TV content of all kinds, from series and movies to documentaries and shows. Some subchannels justin.tv even passed a single type of content throughout the day. Twitch buying from Amazon and multiple complaints against the portal soon led to its closure.
