I believe that is exactly the case. The agreement with Milestone was terminated in 2018, and license sales stopped in December 2018. https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Storage-Apps-Current/ReadyNAS-Surveillance-and-Milestone-Apps-End-of-Service/m-p/1721630#M14370
I use Arlo myself (which is independent from the NAS). Sandshark uses Blue Iris on a PC (which I think stores video on his ReadyNAS), and has recommended that software to others here.

My installation of Blue Iris uses the local hard drive for immediate storage and transfers data to the NAS for longer term storage. So the local storage doesn't need to be large but I can still maintain a long history.

Thanks Sandshark (and StephenB),
My whole point of using NAS for surveilance was not to have my PC running 24/7. I thought ReadyNAS would be good for that... Apparently I was wrong :smileysad:
For now, I'm using my HIKvision cameras' internal NAS recording function and they dump video directly on my ReadyNAS. But this is not the best solution, because reviewing this video later is a pain. You need "proper" surveilance software for that...
Well... gonna live with that :smileyindifferent:
