Apparantly, Silverlight is doing well. It was announced [.wmv] at a MIX '08 keynote that Silverlight is being installed on internet users' machines at a rate of 1.5 million per day. Silverlight is being used in places like Netflix and to webcast over 3000 hours of the 2008 Olympic Games.

Doesn't Silverlight come with the standard updates retrieved from Windows/Microsoft update? If so 1,5 million downloads a day is barely an accomplishment as it gets pushed to the user.
Are there any good implementations of Silverlight yet and is there an advantage for the user compared to Flash so far?
