I don't get why everyone here acts like Flash is actually useful. For anything other than games.
Who the fuck visits full Flash sites in this day and age? Yeah make and sell that garbage if it pays the bills but fuck actually visiting that tedious crap. And if you're a Flash developer then who cares just learn whatever the new shit is people are asking for and sell that, if you're so inflexible that you can't make a shift like that then you're in the wrong business and deserve to sink.
If you can't evolve then I guess you can always carry on making Flash restaurant sites and banner adverts.
As for video there is no reason this should be played in a vector animation system. Should be browser native.
