AFAIK no-one has cracked the DRM on silverlight streams=20 yet, and microsoft has no plans to update moonlight. Ironic that the excuse is "pirates!" -- their restrictive policy has me downloading things I wouldn't bother with otherwise, so I suspect the effect is the opposite of what they intend. Whoever thought, "if it's not available they'll just have to do without" was truly not very bright. --=20 caveat utilitor=20 =E2=99=AB =E2=9D=A4 =E2=99=AB =E2=9D=A4 =E2=99=AB =E2=9D=A4 =E2=99=AB=20
