You are right about that Arne, you can pay for support.  It's still 
toast though:

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end

Java SE 8 was released on March 18th in 2014. By the time Oracle Java SE 
8 reaches the end of public updates for  commercial users in January 
2019, Oracle will have provided almost five years of continuous, free 
public updates.

With an Oracle Java SE Subscription, commercial users can continue to 
benefit from support and regular updates to Oracle Java SE 8, including 
enhancements and critical patches, for an even longer period of time. 
For example, the Java Web Start technology will continue to be 
commercially supported in Oracle Java SE 8 until at least March 2025.

Not all users of Oracle Java SE 8 use it commercially. Some use it to 
play games, or to run consumer productivity applications. Oracle will 
continue to provide free public updates of Oracle Java SE 8 for personal 
users until at least December 2020. During that time, personal users 
should contact their application providers and encourage them to migrate 
their applications to the latest version of Java, or else switch to 
alternative applications.
