When you connect to a server, you first connect to the valve WON server that checks to see that you have a valid cd-key(basically) and that no one else is currently on-line using the same key. So it is the valve WON server that decides to let you connect or not.

Valve has stated they will be taking these servers down which means no one will be able to connect to 1.5 servers AT- ALL

Seems like a strange situation to me.

We paid for the software, and I didn't think it was "leased" and now we will no longer be able to use it.

Seems like there should be some legal issues here.
I should read the license agreement.
