I am not an amateur photographer, so this does not affect me directly, but it's still kind of sad to see real cameras going away.
I heard rumors that their traditional cameras and films are actually sustainable business in some areas such as films for the film industry in terms of product quality(even compared to digital depending on the usage), but the company itself wants to get away from the image of being traditional and wants to adopt the image of going digital. It comes down to money, stock price and they just have to be "digital."
