Adobe vs Apple – my opinion

April 14th, 2010 • 2 comments advertising, offTopic

You should give a f*** about my opinion, but i just need to say that. Every dev has heard about the new license agreement of apple affecting iPhone development. Joa (laugheed / cried a lot) and Lee (talking straight) already made a point.

But, consider being an apple executive:

We already have a lot of great apps
Almost no end-customer will be affected by “our” policy change
Every Company desperately wants to build an iPhone App. Mainly caused by spread of iPhones. An iPhone app simply reaches more customers then any other app (right now) would do.
We can have the app exclusive (rollout on android is doable but difficult), if we want to.
Allowing to write apps in CS5 would invite a lot of low skilled developers (not every flash coder is a good coder) to write Apps in no time. Apples QA would have a lot of work caused by Adobe. And apple would have to pay for that overhead.
We earn money with the “big or creative” apps. Like apps from newspapers, shazam and so on. The little flash game will possibly never create that income.
Implementing iAd in CS5 might cause a lot of trouble.
Crashing apps will put Apple in a bad light, not adobe.

To make that clear

I don’t like apples move either, but guessing / knowing the reasons is a good way starting to solve a problem.

And in the end its all about markert power, collecting customer data and money. Sad but true.

But I care about my rights, especially when someone tries to restrict it (on the internet). I also think that there should be more know how about the whole WWW in our government. That’s why I support “Die Piratenpartei” for the upcomming election in Germany. Obama is kind of a geek so why souldn’t we have a geeky party?
