Silverlight is to flash as java is to flash.  They can do similar things

Vincent,
I get your focus. I don't watch 'movies' on my PC's.
I was asking whether 'SilverLight' is a suitable replacement to Adobe
Flash Y/N?
That was my real ask.
Thanks,
Duncan

I have never used/loaded M$ Silver Light.
Thank you,
