I have been trying to get this point across to the Media in comments all over the Web. Dropping flash makes as much common sense as dropping GIF once PNG was announced, not even finished. That would be considered insane.
However as Steve has hamstring Flash on OSX and then blamed Adobe (Read the flash programmers blogs, this is an API issue that Apple refuses to make available. Main reason for Flash on OSX issues)
Put it in Jason Calacanis speak, “Steve is a good lier”.
The real push by Steve on HTML5 is to remove all competitive Premium video distribution technology from the Web, leaving Apple.
Considering what happened to Music industry, A VERY BAD MOVE.

Wake up everyone. This has nothing to do with whats better or open, its all about control/money.

If Steve was really about whats better for us and openness. He would be for WebM not against it.

Thus Hulu and others could stream directly to the browser on the iPhone and iPad without using an app. This is already working with many YouTube and Vimeo videos. There is no impediment to charging for such services and no way for Apple to take a cut.

Does anyone know if Hulu, can they do streaming DRM content to an iPhone app without having to pay Apple for the privilege?

I suppose, Apple would want their 30% cut of the monthly deal if sent via the iDevices. Deal killer really. Its why all the content owners are saying they want to keep flash alive. Competition for content distribution technology.

And people wonder why Steve wants to kill Flash, the only alternative and much cheaper for the content owner.

It amazes me how the religious ignorants just take what steve says as gospel, and not SPIN.

Or does Hulu see the Roku-Netflix connection as a competitive threat?
