Because some of us don't want to use 90% of their processor to view a low quality video of cats. When their computer can normally do HD video with way under 50% processor usage

I think FireFox will quickly move to support this. I mean, there's no reason why they wouldn't, is there?
- firefox doesn't fully support flash anyway (overlay ads dont work in that browser)SlashPeckham
- Yep they do, you're doing it wrong!rounce
- they would need to re-encode every video, Firefox only supports shitty OGGBIGGESTDOGINTHEWORLD

I've seen plenty of expandable and all kinds of rich media Flash ads on Firefox. I've seen them, tested them, etc.
- This is just more anti-Flash propaganda. html5 will never offer the features Flash does. Get over it.CyBrain
- can you click through them to the html content - things like links and live text?SlashPeckham
- Yes, if you implement it.rounce

there's no such thing as htm5 x flash.
this just sounds as awkward as the old html x flash battle.
you as a designer/developer/whatever must decide what's best for each project. period.

funny... people has been saying flash is gonna die for years and years now.. but here we are, flash still around and getting stronger.
- You think? In my experience, it's wholly relegated to video and audio purveyance.detritus
- Oh, and banner ads, as CyBrain points out, but I do my best to ignore them..detritus
- 99.9% of my lastest jobs were flash sites/microsites, and this includes clients like mtv, diesel, maltesers, gm... if flash is dying maybe it's time to leave it all behindchrisRG
