Unfortunately, most of the videos/video players on websites are Flash based. And having Flash was a great way to get around the "not for mobile" thing you'll get on Youtube (why wouldn't a video be for mobile, anyway? Who cares what you're watching it on?)

Flash isn't something I used a lot, but it was a nice tool to have available. I'll be making a backup, I'm not ready to let it go yet.

I have the most recent version on Adobe Flash on my phone and still get the "Not for mobile" on some vids. I agree with you, who cares what you're watching it on? It's so annoying.

If you're using Dolphin for your browser, do "Desktop View" and you won't get the "not for mobile" message. 🙂

Views on mobile devices don't count towards the offical 'views' count on You Tube, and the 'views' count determines how much money they get from the advertising.....channels that make money from the ads on the videos are thus likely to not support mobile.

when it comes to money, most people don't care at all as long as they are getting it.

If mobile device views = no money, and
desktop/laptop views = money,

Then it only makes sence that mobile not be supported. We all know that in this world in which we live, money is everything.
