Yeah, I would imagine there will be some sort of grace period but the next step for them will be to cut off the guide.  That will be the true, official death of WMC.

In Australia WMC never had a guide supplied by Microsoft - all guide data was either over the air or supplied by a third party service like IceTV.

 

Maybe a third party could take over that service elsewhere.

Microsoft will probably keep their guide services going for a long time. It is rumored that DVR capabilities will be coming to the xBox One. The xBox One is their perceived replacement for Windows Media Center. Considering they want a 10 year lifespan out of their consoles, services will be around for while.
