I would like to see major sites like www.disney.com make the switch over to HTML5 by utilizing video and canvas instead of Flash. I mention Disney due to it being a place where a lot of younger people go to play games and watch videos.

The problem is that they proably have 3rd party contractors that are trained in Flash and are selling the idea to Disney that Flash is the way to go and that HTML5 isn't ready. These contractors get around Flash not being on the iPhone/iPad and Android by creating mobile apps instead of mobile websites that can take advantage of HTML5.

It is seriously a big problem that hopefully some day will be fixed. Will it? Proabaly not as long as the media is controlled by these mega corporations that want to play it safe.

To them they think everyone has Flash anyways and if they don't, its a quick install from their site.
