More DRM.... no thanks...

Yeah no thanks Adobe.

I have no desire to upset the already existing DRM on my PC with your over the top DRM crap. I like MS Office exactly the way it is right now without you guys screwing it up.

And you guys wonder why we bittorrent your software.

If I had the opportunity to buy your software without all the DRM.... I'd hand you full price today.

PDF as Flash?

Cool!

Now Apple may allow Flash player on iPhones :)

Or are they going to kill PDF documents at all?

Adobe

So this was Adobe's vision for the Macromedia suite. Nominal updates with few new features that anyone is going to use, plus arbitrary hobbling of features on non-Windows systems (the Mac only gets Acrobat Pro, the other versions are missing), and charging through the nose for the few new features they do add. 

Come back Macromedia, all is forgiven.

So how long until...

Acrobat 9 Pro users can combine diverse documents such as video, audio, trojans and worms.

Thanks anyway

What a nightmarish scenario, all that nonsense in PDF's, fortunately they had the option to put video in PDF's for years now and nobody on the whole planet ever did I think :)
Incidentally, did they add flash-in-pdf and such to the open-sourced PDF specifications too?

Bog hole

So, why not get flash with your PDFs now? µ

Maybe because we are sick and tired of proprietary PC software that is riddled with security holes and privacy problems? Think before you install this liquid manure.

Adobe gets flashy with Acrobat 9 and Creative Suite 3.3

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
