Adobe didn't birth Flash, they bought it.
Tangentially related, I worked at Adobe around 2002-2004 on an Acrobat multimedia plugin that supported multiple media players: QuickTime, Windows Media Player, Real Player, and whatever other players were popular. I suggested we should support Flash too. Management was like "sure, whatever, it's good to support a lot of players, but don't spend much time on it."
Obviously this was before the Macromedia acquisition.
