I thought the reason the video app wasn't in the Play store was due to them having to give Google a cut of every sale if they did that?

I think you're confusing Google with Apple. The Play Store's policies are much more reasonable, and allow third party payment processors for purchasing digital items that can be consumed outside of the app itself. In fact, here's a third party video store on the Play Store [1], and here's Amazon's own Prime Music app [2].

That's iOS, not Android. And even on iOS, Amazon has a video app for viewing videos, though you can't buy or rent directly inside the app:
