This link pretty much describes it all:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/2974148/software/canonical-is-letting-the-
ubuntu-software-center-wither-and-die.html

Note that little software was ever purchased from it which then made it 
not very viable, hence it will be gone.

Yet another commercial try in the linux desktop list of failures!  And 
not for technical reasons at all.
