Oh, sure, if every browser could display something, then that would be

useful, true.


Right now we know that the majority of consumers can see Flash 4 content

today, and nearly everyone can see at least some Flash content. Individual

sub-audiences may differ from those net norms, but the majority can see

vector graphics today.


If another player can someday achieve the same reach, then that may very

well be useful, I agree.
