The majority of banners are GIFs, true, but rich-media ads tend to get
better results, and have the better growth rate.

Last week's ICONOCAST quoted Jupiter Communications as saying that 60% of
all online advertising will be rich-media by 20002. Among rich-media ads
today, Jupiter quotes Flash as the leading technique, with 54% of
rich-media ads using it. Enliven and RealAudio follow at 27% apiece.

You can read their summary in the March 23 issue:
