Fair enough, DougofTheAbaci
Along with .pdf, Flash is another widespread format that should be killed and never be handed the chance to be as popular as it is. While I don't agree with Apple's decision to support Flash, given that it is a base requirement for proper web browsing in the present days, I do like the solidity of its own browsing experience, even when taking in account its limitations.
About app stores, I find that both Apple and Microsoft are to blame, for their not so sane standards that could be easily dismissed if there was even a slight consistency check on the uploaded apps, nevermind the nature of the content blocking nonsense.
So far, I've seen Cowon players supporting APE, along with other less known brands, most likely to be as the rebranding business that goes around the Nationite N2 player and his counterparts from other regions. Still, APE performs nicely, with tagging and cue support, only that it's not so used as other lossless formats, IIRC.
