You hit the nail on the head.
"Flash" has become synonymous with streaming like "Xerox" is synonymous with making copies of paper. Most members really don't know the difference between the formats other than some work for them and some do not. As long as they think they are seeing a "Flash" video, or whatever they think it is, they are happy.
We say yes whenever we are asked if we have Flash videos because we know it means they are asking if we have streaming or not.
