The reality is that sales of film has decreased by 25% for each of the past two years. If Kodak finds that sales of its B&W paper are no longer profitable why is it Kodak's fault? If people are buying less film then they are also buying less paper. Now you read of people boycotting Kodak film. Gee!, what a great way to have Kodak decide to stop making film. Let's put the blame where it belongs, on the consumer who has turned his back on analog photography. If we want Agfa, Ilford, and Kodak to survive we need to buy their products. If you like a certain product then continue to buy it. "Don't cut your nose off to spite your face." as the old saying goes.
