Flash is the video format used for streaming video playback on sites like YouTube, GoFish, and others. So it's no surprise that Adobe wants to capitize on that and get that content control to the mobile space. Flash has become the defacto standard for video sharing on the web due to it's cross-platform availability, small install footprint (compare that to the QuickTime install process), and royalty-free playback capability.
Divx, Windows Media Video and perhaps other formats are making quiet attempts to get a foothold, but today even the MSN Soapbox service runs Flash.
