As others said there are enough Apps (like Cinexplayer) who play all kinds of video formats. And transcoding to MP4/h.264 with iTunes may be a hazzle, but that will ensure that the file will be played with hardware acceleration.
@Patent lawsuits
It is everyone vs everyone. Apple has to pay Nokia a hefty licensing sum, they are currently sued by Motorola, Microsoft is getting big money from every company which uses Android, Google sells strategic patents to other HTC, so they can make for them the dirty stuff. And nevertheless in the end all will make business together. I am sceptic against people taking sides in that.

It's still not as easy as having a folder pop up on the desktop, though.
