Flash

[Tim Hanson]

This is BS.  This morning an "update fail" message informed me that I can no 
longer rent and stream movies from Amazon.  The reason is that the service 
attempted to update Flash player, and Adobe is no longer updating its Linux 
version.  Soon others who use SWF to deliver content will no doubt require a 
version of the plug-in not available on Linux, leaving us marginalized and out 
in the cold.

Complain all you want about Flash, it is used to offer most streaming content 
on the web.  Lack of access to Flash will severely hamper the use of Ubuntu 
commercially.
