How anyone can deny multimedia is now BIGGER than ever is unbelievable to me.
I assume you're refering to me.

I'm trying to limit the scope of the argument to the desirability of things like the Alice iPad app. Out of the things you listed, I don't really consider any of them "multimedia" (maybe in a strict definition, but not in a "the future of multimedia" definition). Just because you can click on something and get some video and audio, doesn't make it multimedia, IMO.
