So what EXACTLY does this image on The Flash Blog achieve? Nothing.
Why are they doing this? To piss Apple off? To try and get Flash on the iPad?
None of that. Instead contemplate this.
Flash is dying. Yup it is. Why is Flash needed? Videos.
So what does HTML 5 do? It uses inbuilt browser players to play media. So why do we need Flash? We DONT!
In a years time or a little bit longer the web will hopefully see the light and move to an era with HTTP video streaming and <video> tag love.
Youtube is experimenting with Flash-less HTML 5 video playback with browser defined players. I will be making applications to use HTTP Streaming which use browser defined players.
Apple knows this. I know this. Do you know now?
Time to bail from the sinking Adobe ship…
