> Since they're optimizing for time-to-market

How have they optimized for time to market given that they have a large team of HTML-savvy web designers in house?

And what is the point of optimizing for time if you fail to deliver something that delights your market?

I haven't tried this thing, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but if every page is an image, how does one copy text? If there is text in a column, Double tapping ought to maximize the text to fit the column. I don't imagine that works either.

So they're making something that looks like a web page but offers less functionality. That's a very poor trade-off. Those 90s CD-ROMs made money for people back when browsers couldn't deliver that experience. They offered more functionality than the web.

Today, stuff like this offers less functionality. That's a big sacrifice to make.
