Apple wasn't right or wrong - they were SUCCESSFUL in getting flash killed...
SandmanThe fact that Apple got Google to convert all of YouTube to HTML5/x.264 was the nail in Flash's coffin. Until then, Adobe and Flash would have stumbled along makin a shit plugin that fucked up everyone's devices.
Haha, so Adobe - having released Flash for Android, were forced by something Apple did to end development for it?
So yes, something APple did killed Flash.
They really wanted to, they saw great usage for it and for some reason - Apple and the iPhone invalidated all that? Is this seriously your take on it?It is the truth. Without Apple we would still be stuck with Flash. Without the absolutely refusal by Apple to allow flash onto iOS in any way we'd still have it.
Wasn't Flash on Android supposed to kill the iPhone - not the other way around? Wasn't this the magic bullet, the One Big Feature? What did Apple do to force not only Adobe to end development on their mobile Flash plugin - but also force Google to exclude it from mobile Chrome and Microsoft from excluding it from mobile Explorer?They made it irrelevant.
