Default Whatever happened to...

Broad Bean, variety Meteor ??
I've grown these for many years but it appears that "they", (I guess the
seed companies), have withdrawn this particular variety. None are
advertised in the 2 catalogues I have and visits to 3 Garden Centres
have drawn a blank. One Garden Centre, surprisingly, had only 2 Broad
Bean varieties on sale.
Is this a sign that we gardeners are being "railroaded" into only having
the opportunity to buy those seeds from which the ubiquitous "they" make
the most profit ??
Comments, and any answer to my query most welcome.
