I really hope Microsoft decides to keep AOEO alive. The game is great.
The developers working on AoE II HD and AOM EX are not the same as the original developers for these games or as the developers for AoEO. They were specifically assigned to work on those two games. As AOEO Trajan states in his blog on the end of development:
Regarding Trajan's comments about cost effectiveness; the reason why it was not cost effective is because GPG changed to a free-to-play model and pretty much gave everything away for free by making it way too easy to earn empire points, so there was no longer any incentive for people to spend real money for content.
So at the end the reason why it because unsustainable was because of the poor decision making by GPG and Microsoft about how to make the original model of $20 per civ into a free-to-play model.
Same as AOE2HD and AOM EX was given to Skylabs so can AOEM if there was willingness to do so and the vision to make it into a profitable title. There is definitely potential to make profit with AOEO, you just need the right execusion and not give everything out for free.
Finally your cost argument is related to further development on AOEO, there is no reason you have to completely shut it down and rob people of the content they paid for prior to the free-to-play switch up when civs were $20 a pop.
We hope that you understand the reasons that have been stated before and we hope to see you one of the other AoE communities in the future.
Of course we understand u gave us the middlefinger.

Thats your opinion that not everyone shares. If you don't like it noone is asking you to play or support it.
+1
In other words, Microsoft screwed up, and now they are taking it out on all their AOEO customers many of whom have supported them from the beggining.
Not a good way to keep your customers and fans of the AOE series. The way they ended AOEO is the main reason why I refused to buy AOE2HD and will not be getting AOM:EX either.
I will be watching closely how they handle the GFWL shut down this summer.
