Silverlight Has Jackass 2.5 For Free
Today, Jackass 2.5, the extended edition of the high class Jackass Number Two film, comes out on DVD. However, for the last week and the next five days, anyone with a web browser could see the movie for free, courtesy of Blockbuster and powered by Microsoft’s Silverlight. This is probably the first major mainstream promotion for Silverlight, a good thing even if if does feature grown men being chased by gorillas while wearing banana suits.
If you are interested in the DVD, it is now in stores with a retail price of $30, and is available on Amazon for $21.
Also using Silverlight is Entertainment Tonight, the celebrity gossip TV show. They’re using Silverlight Streaming video on their Year In Review 2007 site, like on this page (via Harry Mower).
