Steve Jobs releases fireside chat, going on the record why Flash will never come to iPhone OS.

Still helplessly holding onto any hope that Steve Jobs would relent and let Flash on the iPhone platform? Just give it up now. It’s not ever going to happen. This is of course based off of an official “Fireside chat” of sorts put out by Steve himself. Truth be told, it’s not as vindictive and cut throat as I thought a letter concerning such a matter would be. It is very straight to the point, bulleted list type of affair laying out how it’s...

Wow…MacDailyNews rips PC World’s Rick Broida a new one!

In what is probably the most hilarious rebuttal to a post, MacDailyNews lays into PC World’s Rick Broida who claims AAC is proprietary.  I’m a nice guy and understand people make mistakes…but that is just plain stupid.  MacDailyNews does an amazing job listing a long laundry list of devices and services that use mp3.  He goes one step further and lists another laundry list of why AAC was developed in the first place…to replace mp3 and its short...
