Exclamation Adobe buys Macromedia

I did not want to post this in news because its not very gaming-related but Adobe bought Macromedia today.

"Adobe to Buy Macromedia in $3.4B Deal
Monday April 18, 11:13 am ET
Adobe to Acquire Macromedia in an All-Stock Transaction Valued at About $3.4 Billion"

So... What does this mean? Adobe now controls Photoshop + flash. Clearly this is a good move on their part. I am looking forward to upcoming software from them, are they going to incorporate the programs so they work together easier?

Adobe also bought whatever company owned Cool Edit a while ago. Cool Edit is a music recording program and is very advanced. It's now called Adobe Audition.

Man, Adobe is taking over like a champ. What does this mean? Better software, Macromedia was aight, but Adobe is gonna own with it.

Both of them are companies that should be destroyed for infesting the Internet with flash ads and PDF files. On a related note, the creator of Newgrounds should be murdered.

I am going to have to disagree with you. People have to make money. Why don't you kill everyone who advertises on TV? Macromedia does alot more then just flash.

What people don't have to do is make bloated PDF readers that take 3 minutes to load.
