Adobe公司解释：

近年来 eLearning 市场显示 Authorware 的市场已转移至Adobe Flash® 和 Adobe Captivate®了。Authorware 已是成熟产品，其需求持续下降。对 Authorware 的继续开发于 Adobe 已成赔本买卖(no longer economically viable)。

英文原文：The eLearning market has transitioned to Adobe Flash® and Adobe Captivate® software over the years. Authorware is a mature product and demand has continually declined to where it is no longer economically viable for Adobe to continue development.
