iTunes music store springs to mind... No flash in site yet the most successful and well designed music download site 2003/2004!

Flash it now outdated and out moded. It has it;s place, but for rich content based online delivery, it's slowly losing it's grip.

Look no one in their right minds would make a website with music downloads.

They are all CRAP.

And if they have a subscription service they are even crapper.

news site html, because well unless you have movies of todays top headlines, flash wouldn't be used to its full advantage.

comic ... flash fits perfectly into that slot.

Yawn...

a) depends on the target audience/client needs/requirements
b) 1 - HTML, 2-HTML, 3 - Flash, should be self explainatory!

Your tagline is void. Dringo has already claimed that title.
