Indeed, I don't think the decision should ever be seen as ColdFusion vs ASP.NET for Flash Remoting as both do the same jobs AFAIK.
Moving to BD is only really attractive if to you want/need to consolodate on Windows (cost aside) ad infitum and were planning to use native .NET calls rather than interop over some othe means. BD has far better .NET support than CF and will no doubt get better with the prospect of using the DLR. It does have other obvious benefits with using Windows over using Java/CF on Windows but ColdFusion is a different beast from MX/6.x and it very efficient now as they begin to settle into the groove with releases. Saying that, it is just as possible to hook into Java from .NET as it is to hook into .NET from Java so you are never really severing your options with either.

Could java be more of an option, would you be using Windows servers of unix servers. Anyway all these questions need to calculated and planned before any programming is done. As I said, what would happen if you decide to move to a unix server for cheaper infastructure .Net support would be out of the question then.
