Microsoft Plans Surgical Strike on the E-space with its new browser plugin

Microsoft returns to play with the idea of the rental market with the launch of the Silverlight (SL), the vehicle exploited to topple Netscape in the 1990s with the Internet Explorer browser. Silverlight is a browser plugin or software for playing media files and other Web applications that run on Windows and Macintosh with Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. SL will be able to display interactive animations, graphics, audio and video in a fixed window of the web browser screen in particular.

Microsoft had tied up with the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) to provide hours and hours of free video streaming of the recently concluded Olympic events live from China. Silverlight’s new offer, after two years of testing is pushed to all users who registered online to see live coverage of the event. Despite some initial problems, to ask the user to reinstall SL have already been in the system, Microsoft’s intentions are large and clear.

Even if live coverage is limited to U.S. users web today as it becomes available to everyone, is unlikely to cause serious harm to competitors. With the events of the new offer many have been less popular freely available for viewing, but the events and popular plays was higher with a price attached to it. However, events outside the TV channels have had better exposure because it is free. With effect from high-speed transmission, the Olympics were a visual feast for Web users while working in his office.

Even if someone does not intend to use or not installed Silverlight, you can use Windows Media Player (WMP) for a lifeless display. A partnership with Novell will offer a version for Linux users. In the near future, we can even expect the mobile version of the SL in Windows Mobile and Nokia smartphones.

But market analysts see this development differently, they are reminded of the battle rather than federal antitrust law in which Microsoft has been fined for misuse of its broadcasting market shamelessly promoting its own browser developer can control on the worldwide web. During the 1990s, Netscape had a monopoly in world shipping, but in 1995, Microsoft destroyed Netscape packing without the Internet Explorer browser with its Windows operating system.

In real time, it is understood that Microsoft has plans to disrupt the apple cart of Adobe is the most popular and sophisticated Flash Media Player is widely used for the dissemination of interactive files, video and audio. It is common knowledge that most Internet use Flash to stream video and other related files. Currently, WMP from Microsoft and Apple QuickTime have a negligible presence in the electronic space in terms of use and application. This space, Microsoft is targeting through its latest offering multimedia player. In summary, Silverlight seems to be a clone of Flash, but sources say it is still early to make judgments about the plugin, and the intentions of Microsoft.
