It think it's pretty easy to interpret this action as the final nail
in the coffin for Flash track support.
And given the huge amount of bad PR this has generated among
customers and the enormous numbers of man hours of support needed to
work around it - I doubt the words "Quicktime and Interactive" will
ever be uttered again by previous QuickTime supporter / developers.
So if Apple's idea was to kill off Quicktime except for .mp4 / AAC
movies for iTunes -congratulations mission accomplished, they should
be very proud of themselves.
Guess I'll go read up on Flash programming and buy a Windows / Linux
box.

It's been amazing to see the amount of discussion there has been on
different lists. I sometimes wonder if Apple don't update Flash
support past Flash 5 because they think nobody uses Flash tracks!
