Even in late Android you don't have Flash, you need to install it in pirate/hack mode.
Simply if Flash not there (iphone, ipad, several Androids), you should use the Apple (Cupertino) HLS streaming with HTML5, which is supported by Android too:

Wowza supports it from 2.x (include audio transcoding) and that's what we use. Apple won in this case.

Tubes monetize with pay cams, it make sense free cams monetize with pay cams too.
The free cams are more a way to keep more guys sticky in the site, better they hang for free in your free cam site than in someone else's, as when it is the moment they buy something, they do from the site where they are, not from where they aren't.
There will be always pay cams, because it is interactive and can be exclusively produced in private by the only specific model the user care at, he will not care to other models he is not in flirt with, even if 1000 models available and naked, he love this specific one and wants to talk her daily.
I can't say the same for pay prerecorded content, you can simply copy it, and the video can not tell the viewer "I love you, I am your gf", this is quite a difference. Of course only a small % of the porn surfers will believe a cam girl love him or finds him handsome and funny (most are less delusional than that), the cams convert a small % of people but they spend a lot, each.
