No more Gold? 12 month XBLG membership discontinued!

This is precursor to one of 2 things most likely:

• Free multiplayer next-gen (this would be the only fair move by MS, as Windows 10 users use the same multiplayer servers as Xbox players but don't have to pay for them)
• Online locked behind the gamepass paywall (this would suck, as 12 months of Gmaepass currently costs $120, twice as much as 12 months of Gold cost before it was removed as an option)

Free multiplayer is not going to happen, it has already been proven to be a cash cow.

#2 is what I think. New tiers of Gamepass, but it will be more expensive than XBLG to which fans will justify of course with the extra free games.
