Apple has reminded us a few times recently that it does not like flash. It is one of the few programs that can actually make a mac freeze. So, the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch will NOT get Flash. With Google already working hard on replacing Flash in YouTube with HTML5 video, it’s really heading towards HTML5 world.

According to Adobe 7 million iPhone + iPod touch users attempted to download Flash in December, including myself.

Steve Jobs had a town hall meeting and answered questions from Apple employees brave enough to ask tough questions. Concerning Flash there was nothing new. Jobs doubled down by basically saying HTML5 will kill Flash:About Adobe:

They are lazy, Jobs says. They have all this potential to do interesting things but they just refuse to do it. They don’t do anything with the approaches that Apple is taking, like Carbon. Apple does not support Flash because it is so buggy, he says. Whenever a Mac crashes more often than not it’s because of Flash. No one will be using Flash, he says. The world is moving to HTML5.
