Comments on: Why Some Media Companies Are Quietly Cheering The Apple-Adobe Tiff http://paidcontent.org/2010/04/30/419-why-some-media-companies-are-quietly-cheering-the-apple-adobe-tiff/ The economics of digital content Sat, 25 May 2013 17:04:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Tony Grossman http://paidcontent.org/2010/04/30/419-why-some-media-companies-are-quietly-cheering-the-apple-adobe-tiff/#comment-78331 Tue, 04 May 2010 00:31:36 +0000 http://paidcontent.wp.gostage.it/2010/04/30/419-why-some-media-companies-are-quietly-cheering-the-apple-adobe-tiff/#comment-78331 Exactly.. The article confuses apps and web sites that run flash. This doesn’t make it any easier to monetize web-based content as opposed to apps. Its either Flash or HTML 5 (or something else), but its still on the web. Apps are closed and can be purchased, but the HTML 5 sites we are talking about are still accessed through the web browser.

Why does HTML5 make it any easier than Flash for content providers to charge for content? My understanding is that HTML5 is an open standard that allows video content to play without any plugins….. Explain?

If Adobe doesn’t want to build (or more likely acquire, as they did with Photoshop, GoLive and all the Macromedia apps) production tools for HTML5, then it needs to fix Flash.
