After Steve Jobs attacked Adobe by saying the Flash technology is obsolete and is good only for poor applications, Adobe has responded, and the newest episode is related to a campaign that the company started on a few popular sites. The campaign also includes a letter in which Adobe says Flash is an application open to all and in free market the best product always wins. Adobe also claims that Apple has a bad attitude that undermines the next stage in the evolution of the Internet.
Adobe attacks Apple through an open letter, saying it has "a very different approach" and "made a series of steps that would undermine the next step in internet evolution, a stage in which digital handsets will surpass PCs, so that any individual can become a publisher, and content will be accessed anywhere and anytime ".
"Ultimately we think the question is: Who controls the World Wide Web? And we believe the answer is anyone and everyone, but in no way a single company," reads the last paragraph of the letter.
Adobe's campaign held a large number of audience publications like the New York Times, Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Financial Times Wall Street Journal, Wired, TechCrunch and Engadget. Even so, Apple replied only through a post on Steve Job's blog.
Who's right? I think everybody can choose a side, but at the end of the day, that's what free market is all about.
