    but sales talks “unfortunately fell through a couple weeks ago.”

I wonder how often this happens. Just this week another company (own3d.tv) suffered the same fate.

Sometimes things don't pan out as well as all parties hope, and it flows downhill.

I'd much rather see a company close up because they know they are no longer sustainable than to try and extend beyond where they can pay the people that are supporting them. (http://www.destiny.gg/n/own3d-tv-a-beginners-guide-to-being-...)

own3d has not been paying streamers for a few months[0], and there was recently a public backlash against them.
