I'm seeing the news already makes it around... Well, that came a little unexpected, even though not totally. G+ didn't manage to acquire the same or similar status to Facebook, it simply is a matter of fact. And you know how big corporations treat their little toys that don't achieve their goals... They let them live for some amount of time still, but then kill them off. Although, in this case: Not completely (still). It's just only the end of the free consumer version. Nothing else. How the rest will end up, this may also be a question of time and a question of what else Google thinks of turning this into. Sometimes they also find some other use for it, some other niche.
