It may be a cash grab, but then again, every Spider-Man animated series since '94 has been made to cash in on something or other;

TAS was made to cash in on the hype for James Cameron's Spider-Man (which never got made but that's besides the point.) and the success of X-Men: TAS.

TNAS was made to cash in on the success of the movie (even though it was supposed to be an adaptation of Ultimate Spider-Man originally.).

Spectacular (YES, EVEN SPECTACULAR!!!) was made to cash in on the success of the Spider-Man trilogy, especially after all the money that Spider-Man 3 brought back.

Ultimate Spider-Man was made, obviously, to cash in on the building hype for The Amazing Spider-Man and to stop the fan complaints for either a new Spider-Man cartoon or a continuation of Spectacular.
