RE: FN-FORUM Flash with everything - was site check

date posted 27th January 2001 11:16

I regularly visit a few sites, and spend hundreds of pounds at a time at
one or two of them, and NONE of them insists on Flash. The one or two who
do also have non-flash sites , and that's where I go.

This is not a coincidence. Flash is an excuse to make a lousy web site
that gives me as a high-spending customer NO ADDED VALUE whatsoever.

Consequently that naff insistence on Flash loses people money.
