Well, it wouldn't be wise to buy it just to shut it down... :P

Companies do that all the time depending on why they purchased the company. Sometimes they want the tech, sometimes they want the people, sometimes they want the business (in which case they keep it running).

Sometimes they want to kill competitors (although this is probably not the case).

That's another valid reason. I should have put "etc..." at the end of my post to indicate that it wasn't an exhaustive list

I didn't mean to correct you. I wanted to underline that sometimes being bought by a bigger, healthy and wealthy company is not good news.

If they closed it down, there would be a lot of furious people and they would open themselves up to many, many lawsuits, especially from the EU countries.

I hope nothing too drastic happens. Like in some instances, you get a Steam key from desura if you have a game there. Hopefully they dont get rid of that feature.

I uh... I have already like 200+ games on my account there, and I loved the Indie Royales so far. Please don't fuck it up for me, or I'll shit violent bricks down your necks, Linden Lab. No seriously, I will.

i propose a game: substitute Desura with Valve and then find meaningful substitutions for Linden Lab and Second Life. then panic.

an example: Microsoft (those guys that created Xbox) just bought Valve

Electronic Arts(those guys that created Sims 3 and is selling each separate addon for the price of the full game even though the DLCs brings close to nothing in my eyes) just bought Valve.

On the plus side, better support and maybe a better client.

On the downside, get ready for "Portal 2 DLC: GLaDOS gets reformatted and thinks she should kills you again"

So the matrix just got one level deeper for some is the way I see it... Desura will be assimilated into Second Life eventually. Humans don't make good cattle long term, History reveals that so much that even the history books written by the winners can't help but show this.
