So Apple has finally done it: having prevented Flash Player from coming to the iPhone (and iPod touch and iPad), it’s now, with the revised clause 3.3.1 of the iPhone developer agreement, closed the door to Adobe’s constructive and innocuous workaround of allowing Flash developers to convert their projects to iPhone/iPad apps. continue

So Stephen Fry has admitted to downloading the series finale of House over BitTorrent because it was quicker than finding a legal copy. Lord Stephen of Twitter made his confession during July’s iTunes Festival, where he criticised the entertainment business for suing file sharers, saying that ‘making an example of ordinary people is the stupidest thing the record industry can do’.
