They're not. That's why they're making a movie.

And I think the act of milking the cash cow was what Goggen meant when he said that a season 3 of K-ON would not be considered lucky, because frankly it would be a shame for K-ON to have a third season all for the purpose of money. Sure, if there was more material from the manga to animate, then I'll be all up for a third season. But as it is, season 2 has already covered the end of the manga as Goggen pointed out, and it provides a pretty nice closure to the story. I just don't think that focusing on the juniors and their new band is enough for a third season because most of the appeal of K-ON lies in the five main girls and if four of them were to take a lesser role, then the third season would not be as profitable and popular as the first two seasons.
