It's usually because AVI is an easy format to write to and you can encode it in real time with as little impact on performance as possible. If it were to not encode it in realtime, your videos would be restricted to how much free RAM you have available, and when you're done recording, you'd have to watch a progress bar go up to 100% as it encodes the video.
