    Hi
    Is this correct that Microsoft SilverLight is capturing the market of Animation on web?
    So is this better than Flash and sooner will be leading the market.

    I don't think so, Adobe Air started first so maybe still on the top and don't for forget others like google gears, browserplus, titanium, lazsio and i don't know how many more

    LOL! In Microsoft's dreams. Silverlight is being dropped by the likes of Major League Baseball and the New York Times for quality issues. Flash is on 95% of all computers but only 3% is Silverlight. Outside of Microsoft, no one has heard of it.

    Now, with HTML5 video introduced, there will be no need for Silverlight. It will be a dead horse soon.

    I think reverse, the report here convinces the dominance of Silverlight in coming years.

    and Microsoft can go up to any extent to give away freebies to promote their solution.

    What report? All they show is a graph based on what? They show no reference as to how they came up with that. And what do they mean by "support"? It makes no sense. There are far better known sources than that place.
