Are frequent flyer programs dying?

I stopped using frequent traveler perks long ago. Most of my flying (and I did a LOT of it) was with Delta and they consistently made it very difficult to redeem the miles when I wanted to use them. Often, I was unable to use them to take my wife with me on business trips. Yes, I could get her on a plane but it would be at a different time from mine. So, I just gave up and started shopping around for cheaper flights on other carriers.
