Im sure Apple is not doing it because they are heroes, its doing it because they dont want to be in the MS vs Apple fiasco of the ninties.

Apple talking Google into converting their videos to the open h.264 standard threatened that I think. I'm not sure why Apple doesn't support Flash on the iPhone or ?TV (at this point at least), but a part of me thinks that Adobe's probably pulling down some serious royalties. In the end, I am glad that large companies support "open" formats - but wonder about their (Adobe's) motives.
