Google is killing websites

Today I went to check the films available at the cinema at my local website and found that the website is going to be closed in a few days.

The website owners said that ads (served by google) do not get enough money to compensate the maintenance. It also cites the problem with Google search in which Google, when offering the results of searching for films, hijacks the top of the results with their own previews of available movies. The results are often wrong and sometimes missing movies shown a cinemas.

I’m kinda bummed, now I have to check 4 differente sites to get all the info.

Has anyone seen something similar to this to other website?
