As much as I am now a no-user of "Flash", allow me the following comments.

That's all within transition. Currently, big video portals are moving to HTML5, often including the wish to also use free and open standards for their videos so they can access a bigger audience. Keeping things in "Flash" is a no-go. A main problem of "Flash" is that is isn't compatible with the upcoming trend to move to portable devices. Only HTML5 and compliant browsers will be present on those platforms, and those who keep their sites in "Flash" will be out of scope soon. HTML5 will be the future; "Flash" already is the past. Soon, it won't be important anymore. Conforming to standards will be the key to all those new platforms that customers are interested in. > Flash is buggy, I'll give you that, but "Don't > install it." is not an option for a lot of people. I had been using "Flash" in the past (on FreeBSD). It was so annoying that I finally completely removed it. It has become *the* choice of "professional web developers" to make their sites unusable and finally unaccessible, as well as a big annoyance of users, primarily due to its sheer overuse for advertising purposes. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
