>Flash is OK for YouTube. It's wonderful for ads, since I use Flashblock.

That raises an entirely different issue. If you take the content is it
okay for you to block the ads? If you don't like the ads maybe you should
go somewhere else for your content?
I don't block the text ads. I don't block the GIF or JPEG ads. I don't
block the blinkers either. Flash is a mess. Advertisers shouldn't use
movies where still images work as well as better.
Perhaps I should email the offending sites and complain. But I'm only
one person. Who else will complain about the inappropriate use of
software? It's their loss and my gain, unless it's a site that I really
like, then I'll tell them they have a problem. I do view some of the
ads, but it's my choice, not their "push".
I like Flash for online movies, but not for static info or ads. No more
Trash with Flash.
