I disagree. Generator's main purpose was dynamic multimedia content. Now
that you can use CF to control Flash, Generator is no longer needed. What's
more is that you can integrate ram and swf files using smil files
(http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-smil/). In such an enviroment you can use Flash as
a kind of dynamic quarterback to control Real Media files and integrate the
two simulatiously all controlled by CF (think DVD and CF is the remote
control). What this basically means, is that you can now do what non web
broadcast media cannot. So the only time I would buy Generator is if March
15 rolled around and I needed to buy something as a tax deduction.
