The rumours speculated that the servers would be shut down this November, most likely with the logic that 3 years is long enough for most gamers to upgrade.

Xbox Executive Phil Spencer shut down the rumours with two words: Not True.

Xbox live 1.0, for the original Xbox, was shut down in April 2010. This was 9 years after the launch for the original Xbox, and the Xbox 360 had been out for 5 years already.

Although the Xbox 360 has already celebrated its 10th year, it is safe to say that the servers should be safe for awhile yet. The Xbox sold 24+ million consoles as of 2006, with the Xbox 360 selling 84 million as of 2014. Chances are they are making a bit more money off of the 360 then they did the original console.
