I am not sure what to say in this post without saying too much. Let me start with WTF is the point of flash? If you know a good reason please tell me because I can't think of a single reason why I would ever use Flash over another solution. Let's take the example that instigated this post. Grooveshark, a somewhat nice service. Do a search, get an inferior quality track, play it, save it on a play list for when you want to listen to inferior quality music later. Great. Now surely searching for music and playing it can't be that difficult, right? If true then why the frack, pardon my Caprican, does it use 142MB of memory and lock up my processor to accomplish this task?



I'll stop now. Grrr. Sorry, there's more. Sometimes you hear things like "crappy flash = crappy flash developer" in which case there must be some sort of satanic level conspiracy going on. If ... *deep breath * ... OAO.
