Who Killed Encarta?

Encarta (Microsoft) released last month that they will be stopping the Encarta encyclopedia.

Here is what Micorsoft had to say

This is microsofts explanation of Encarta:

"Encarta has been a popular product around the world for many years. However, the category of traditional encyclopedias and reference material has changed. People today seek and consume information in considerably different ways than in years past. As part of Microsoft's goal to deliver the most effective and engaging resources for today’s consumer, it has made the decision to exit the Encarta business"


So who killed it?

Needless to say i think it was WIKIPEDIA
