This is unfortunately true. Your best bet would probably be to convert the video to a SWF file and upload it somewhere (blip can take SWF uploads, for what it's worth). People can still rip the video out of a SWF file, but it's much more difficult, time consuming and unlikely than if you uploaded a Quicktime file or an FLV.
