NBC Drops Silverlight, Runs Back to Adobe for Flash - http://www.readwriteweb.com/archive...
Hehehe. Sweet Vendetta! Expect a comment from John Dowdell in T minus 10... 9... 8... 7.... - Aldo Bucchi from FriendFeed MT Plugin
But Flash choked on the NFL Opener. Now what are they gonna do, go back to Silverlight. Sheesh. - Oldengrey (Jay)
The Silverlight install was huge beyond belief. Control Panel said it was taking up 4GB of space. - James Williams
James: Which control panel? - Oldengrey (Jay)
yeah and did u see how horrible flash went for them? streaming nfl quality was terrible. - adolfo foronda
Uh, Silverlight is not a 4GB install. - Jordan Hofker
thinking james must have gotten the "trojan.win32.longjohn.silverlight" download from driveby.installwarez.cn ;-) - Karim
Yeah good riddance! Silverlight was a bother to install and then the video was a scaling nightmare...I don't mind flash choking a little, it will fix itself. It did do the job though: MSFT knows what they have to fix and NBC has leverage for the next silverlight video exclusive negotiations... - Anthony Farrior from FriendFeed MT Plugin
I used to work for macr and now a client is requiring me to use Silverlight. I see the pros and cons of both, but it is a little like groundhog day. - Oldengrey (Jay)
