But-- but-- being "one entity controlling the source and dominating" is exactly what Apple is trying to do by squeezing Adobe out! This is a no-brainer to me. Apple is trying to create an exclusive neighborhood where they have discretion over who gets in and what gets done. Adobe on the other hand plays very nicely in an inclusive world where exclusivity is in the hands of the individual. Don't like Flash? Simple: don't install the plugin, or use a Flash-blocker. In Apple's inverted version of reality, you don't have that freedom. THEY made the decision for you. And sure I'm in favor of HTML5. But let it win on its own merits. If it can unseat Flash on those terms, great! Even so, get ready for a long haul. Everything is evil by degree. I'll take Adobe's evil or Apple's any day.
