I know surfers want downloadable content so that they can jerk off to it later. But I guess it would be harder to rip such content.

Flash is easy to save, but much harder to protect. Also note that people with with
newer computers can't run Flash, since it isn't available for 64 bit processors, so you'd
be giving up a bunch of your customers. Also of course many people with older 32bit
systems don't have Flash installed.
Disclaimer - They may have released Flash for 64 bit in the last few days and I wouldn't
know about it, but it wasn't available for several months anyway. Yes, I know on some
systems you can do weird hacks to get Flash mostly working, but your average punter
hasn't set all that up.
