I think they closed the source on the artwork and maybe some of the interface due to people recompiling with added malware then charging $$$ for it.
Could be wrong.

Square Enix Facing Class Action Suit Over FFXI "Hidden Fees" 76
A class action lawsuit has been initiated against Square Enix over the fees they charge for subscription-based MMO Final Fantasy XI. The court filing alleges "deceptive advertising, unfair practices, and fraudulent concealment" of information about the game's pricing model, essentially saying Square Enix doesn't clearly advertise that there is a monthly fee, and that failure to pay can result in late fees and account termination. The plaintiff is seeking a settlement in excess of $5,000,000 and including "all persons who purchased or played the online games four years prior to the filing of this lawsuit."

The ending of the first book had quite a long section about the happenings within the game and I believe it ended with Lister imagining an exit but deciding he couldn't leave at christmas, but it was always christmas in Bedford Falls. Or is my memory mixing the first and second books together?

Although I'm a big fan of the TV show, the first novel "Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers" was a brilliant book. I could never understand why the second book (Better than life) was just a re-telling of the end of the first.
