Internet Explorer is absolutely awful.

Flash is absolutely awful.

Neither should be considered a viable platform.

What about WebOS? That's not Apple at all and I use it as an example way more than the iPhone OS.

Though I'll say this- if it's a format Apple supports (h.264, HTML5, AJAX, Javascript, Webkit, AAC) chances are it's better than what Microsoft or Adobe supports (Windows Media, Silverlight, Flash.)

besides that you're quick to point out that you like webOS so much because of how heavily it copied apple (which it will get sued on if it ever gets popular enough for people to care)

AAC is an openly licensed format. WMA is not.

AAC has superior compression to MP3. WMA does not.

AAC has better licensing terms than MP3.

WebOS may likely get sued. But they have studied what Apple got right and have produced better solutions in many regards while paying attention to executing the details. I wish they weren't the only company that did that.

Even most cars now support AAC, as do most mp3 players (even my non-Apple phones do.) Really not much of an issue anymore.
