The full page ads ran in giant newspapers such as The NY Times and the Wall Street Journal and is accompanied by a site, promoting Adobe's message.

Apple sucks.
That's why jailbreaking is probably the best thing to do when purchasing an iPhone/iTouch.
Don't let Apple control the things you buy.

In this case apple are right.. adobe are closed source proprietary forceware.. BUT if apple want to change things they should stick some development money the way of gnash and help build a full working open source player free for EVERYBODY.. otherwise they should STFU and just make it so the bloody unix one they use on macs works.. retarded.. it really is.. and so damn funny to watch all the crapple fanboys paying over the odds for something that won't work.. hahahahahahaha

makes me think of the pot calling the kettle .. both are lockdown forceware merchants.. great they are having a huge tiff in public so we can ALL see how stupid and greedy they both are.. both will lose.. lets have NO proprietary standards on the web.. at all.. flash is from the ark.. it's about as necessary as java these days.. used by lazy incompetent coders to do stuff that honestly we have the processing power and bandwidth to do with html and css nowadays... We don't need these dinosaur players.. we don't need dinosaur closed operating systems.. basically apple and adobe are both obsolete business models and both deserve to be shunned and laughed at by a web savvy pc literate world..

They are both closed, but Adobe Flash does not require any Adobe certifications, and Adobe Flash Creator is not required to make a flash file.

The fact is that the internet is nowhere near perfect...it still takes 72 hours to propagate a domain transfer! We have to live with what we have for now...and right now that is flash. HTML5 is still mostly limited to tech demo sites; and even there it looks no better than Flash (many Flash videos actually look better than the HTML5 demos).

WMA sucks too, and so does quicktime...but I still want support for both because sometimes I need them (almost no quicktime these days tho). With the possible exception of things that are clearly illegal, nothing should be blocked.
