Microsoft has a bunch of content aggregator apps under the MSN brand (and before that, the Bing brand): News, Weather, Sports, Money, Health & Fitness, Food & Drink, and Travel. These run on Windows 8, Windows Phone, iOS, and Android.
Three of the apps are being shut down later this year: Travel, Food & Drink, and Health & Fitness. In a statement, Microsoft said that it would continue to work on the apps with "broad consumer appeal," indicating that the problem with these three is that they simply weren't used enough. The company says that nobody will be losing their jobs.
The Food & Drink and Travel apps will be discontinued on September 28. Oddly, Health & Fitness will be discontinued a little later; it lives on until November 1.
