Looks like flash is dead.

Think I'm right in saying iPads don't run flash and now it looks like Android is dropping it as well. There's no flash support for Jellybean and from what I'm aware there won't be. I've managed to find a third party app that has a flash downloader and it seams to be working fine so far.

How do apple users work round it, and is the reason so many sites have dedicated apple support like TV catch up and the like?

No flash support on the iPad. Not sure how the apps work either, but they are all now stand alone apps, where as before, I know the like of the BBC site was just a skinned down version of the standard website.

HTML5 is definitely the way forward.

HTML5, see that's a new one on me, although it looks like its going to be something to look out for.

The coding is pretty similar, but there are loads of new features for media. Xenforo (this forum software), is fully HTML5 and CSS3.

  <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
  <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
