It's irrelevant. Apple has already decided they can
move forward without Flash. If they won Flash in the lottery they still wouldn't incorporate it in their mobile platforms regardless of how clean the source is...why would they bother?<p>Yes, there are still large parts of the web that rely on Flash. And popular parts of the web. But none of them are <i>important</i> parts of the web. There is no critical Flash-based infrastructure that, if Flash went away tomorrow, would prevent people across the Internet from doing their jobs.  You can't run Farmville without Flash, but Farmville is a fad...six months or a year or two years from now people will be obsessing over some other online diversion.<p>The only people who <i>depend</i> on Flash are the people who design and run the sites with Flash content. Lots of others <i>enjoy</i> Flash but can live without it.
