End of support for OS X 10.4 and 10.5

Why pull support and remove functionality? Why not just drop support -- just stop updating the app but still allow basic functionality? There are still a lot of legacy machines that are still in use ...

I found version 2 of iDrive (for PPC) by scrolling down the page a little further to where it says "Downloads for accounts created prior to 11-23-2011." – https://www.idrive.com/online-backup-download . After installing version 2, it refused to launch: "not supported on this architecture." I also found a troubling support thread t iDrive. Sounds like iDrive already went through a process similar to what Dropbox is doing now. Read here: http://forum.idrive.com/topic.php?id=72 Dennis, a Business Development Associate at IDrive, wrote: "The [older] account cannot be converted to our new infrastructure. This is because the underlying technology for your account is based on older techniques and older programming. Our new system was completely redesigned from the ground-up to take advantage of the latest innovations available to us. The older accounts are based on old technology that's incompatible with the new infrastructure." Is anyone successfully using iDrive 2 with iDrive 3?
