The benefit is in the end result: a web-based application that behaves 
like a desktop application. Better productivity, better user 
experience, happier users, more revenue. Also, a well-designed Flash 
(read: well-engineered) application should be modular enough to allow 
substantial reuse of libraries and components, enabling future apps to 
be built quicker. Yes, there's an initial learning and development 
curve but the result is far superior to anything you can produce in 
HTML (or even DHTML - and it is far easier to maintain in Flash!).
