3. Fear of unapproved developers taking away apps into their own portals. For instance. Any flash developer can develop a game specific to the iphone and release it on their own website or whatever, rather than a native app for the app store.
Please spend more time doing some research, instead of purchasing the email addresses of adult webmasters without their solicitation and spamming my inbox with your shitty cam program.

Flash is overrated. HTML 5 is the future. We are only stuck behind because Microsoft are so shit at keeping up with their technology. FACT |
The technical reasons part is a bunch of Steve Jobs gestapo bullshit! The real reason is because Jobs is a control freak and doesn't want anybody else to be able to make money without Apple getting their cut from the App Store.
Apple made this same mistake in the past and didn't learn from it. They tried to keep the Mac platform closed and the PC took over. Android is already on the rise. They don't learn.
I personally have a love hate relationship with Apple. They make the best products out there from a consumer perspective but as a software developer I would have to say they are one of the most evil companies in technology. Saying fuck you to your developers is a mistake and will be their downfall.
