Actually, the player hasn't been discontinued at all. It's still supported and bugfixes are still released. The decision was not to develop new versions in the future and instead to focus on flash apps via AIR.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the web market or the "mobile in general doesn't support flash" claim, which is verifiably false.
