Look at you all acting all surprised over the great apple land-grab like they haven't already been doing it for years...

rosem has a point. Right now, the bar is pretty high, which weeds out a lot of the amateurs. With the export to iPhone they would have been flooded with tens of thousands of submissions. Maybe they viewed that as a bad thing?
On the other hand, there's a clear bitch slapping element going on since they waited until the eve of CS5's release to announce such a move.

I guess the question is how will they be able to tell unless it clearly say compiled from flash in the code.

Guess it can be interpreted a hundred different ways and is likely to be a whole combination of reasons. But at the end of the day if it endorses good QC I'm right behind it.

They used to have a symbiotic relationship when everyone except creative professionals were jumping ship to Windows in the mid 90's. I think Adobe's Mac software is what kept Apple afloat during those difficult years.... and this is how Apple repays them. Nice karma apple.

this is my general thoughts on the whole thing, read:

have you ever used ms word to export an HTML page? yeah... same thing.

A response from Adobe:

From the link above:
"Personally I will not be giving Apple another cent of my money until there is a leadership change over there. I’ve already moved most of my book, music, and video purchases to Amazon and I will continue to look elsewhere. Now, I want to be clear that I am not suggesting you do the same and I’m also not trying to organize some kind of boycott. Me deciding not to give money to Apple is not going to do anything to their bottom line. But this is equivalent to me walking into Macy’s to buy a new wallet and the salesperson spits in my face. Chances are I won’t be buying my wallets at Macy’s anymore, no matter how much I like them.
Now let me put aside my role as an official representative of Adobe for a moment as I would look to make it clear what is going through my mind at the moment. Go screw yourself Apple."

^ wow
"Now let me put aside my role as an official representative of Adobe for a moment as I would look to make it clear what is going through my mind at the moment. Go screw yourself Apple."this guy is just an evangelist. that's not a very high rank. wonder if adobe will offer a disclaimer that his thoughts are his own, etc.
pretty harsh words, brah

Real talk now kids, it would have been shit we all know that nothing of value was lost.
Don't believe me? Download "That roach game" from iTunes, that was the output of it and until now I have never seen an alpha fade run at about 5 frames per second

@pizza
i'll concede, flash is way too slow. it's been brought up to adobe numerous times, and everyone is still waiting for a response - myself included.
