Internet & Networking 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.

Call me skeptic, but I find that figure very hard to believe. In a month they would reach est. half a billion downloads, someone at the PR department should be fired (or get a raise).


Don't look now, but I think your decimal point just jumped the track. ;-)

1.5E06 * 30 = 45E06

I believe that's about in line with what Firefox 1.0 got.
