No but he does owe an ending. Imagine he was honest with readers and said "hey guys you can buy A Game of Thrones but just know, this series will never be finished." Do you think anyone would buy the book? Of course people assume there will be an ending when they start the series. He owes all of his success to the readers so yes, he does owe an ending even if it's a bad one.

Reddit owes all its success to its users. Does reddit owe me anything?
The very basic line of reasoning here is just really questionable if you think about it for a bit, and invites everyone to become entitled assholes. Which is, incidentally, how people act towards GRRM.

If reddit breaks its promises for what you'll get when you use it, then yes it doesn't deserve any users

And it's perfectly fine if you think he doesn't deserve any readers and you be an example of that. That's not what I'm complaining about here.
