1. Comment - Silverlight 2 final set for this summer, won't play Flash video

   you can also use python, ruby and other languages to program against silverlight, since .Net support that.
   as far as developers are concerened, this is a much better solution than having to learn actionscript and work with the awful dev tools that are out there.
   
   I don't know if the expression tools are bettter than flash for graphic designers and animators, but because your simply creating an xml file, I'm sure lots of 3rd party softwares will be available (like all the export plugins from other tools)
   
   and it's so easy to generate xaml on the fly from any server side language

   seriously?
   WMV existed way before FLV was created.
   It was Macromedia who chose a propriety format and not to support one of the standard formats (quicktime, rm, avi, wmv).
   So why would anyone else need to support their format? it isn't that good anyway.
   
   There's one thing microsoft does better than anyone else, their dev tools and anyhing else led by Scott Guthrie. Silverlight is much better than flash, easier to develope, and an open, xml based, format.
   Adobe and Apple are just as bad as MS, Google also, it's all corporations who want to make money, don't be fooled by your jealousy driven hatred of MS and Bill Gates
