Internet Explorer 9 will support only h.264 for HTML5 video playback. One excerpt from todays blogpost reads as follows “Flash does have some issues, particularly around reliability, security, and performance.”

Bad Times for Adobe’s Flash

Fake Steve anounces the end of flash support in Apple’s Desktop Operating System.

Steve Jobs publishes his thoughts on Flash. He closes by saying Adobe should focus on making tools for open web standards such as HTML5 instead of “criticizing Apple for leaveing the past behind”.

Some valid points here on the ongoing Adobe vs. Apple sage which dates back to 1996. Well worth a read.
