So now that Bitcoin has smart contracts capability, ETH is needed for...?

for the blockchain platform Ethereum provides, which allows people and companies to build their projects on. Bitcoin doesn't offer the blockchain, Ethereum does. Ethereum's business model is more tangible to businesses, governments, organizations that Bitcoin because it allows those entities to build projects and processes off the blockchain without having to code and develop and test their own!

Even if that were the case... Why not just use ETC instead? Is there any advantage ETH offers over ETC for running those contracts?

Unless you consider an advantage Vitalik being able to rollback the "blockchain" at will any time a HUGE fuckup happens again.
