The problem with Flash

I have been asked what the big deal is with Flash that has Apple so upset. The issue is in how Flash decodes video files. Flash uses a decoder that consumes more power than the H.264 industry standard. The power difference is significant in mobile devices like smart phones, laptops, and the iPad, so Apple decided not to support Flash and force the issue. The impact of this decision is huge for organizations like my employer that distribute content using Flash. Stay tuned, this may be a bumpy ride.
