Cool. That's relatively new. Last time I did research on the subject, you had to run a browser under Wine, and it was just too much trouble for me to go to the trouble to do it. Still seems a little complicated, requiring Wine, and a Silverlight install, but I guess it's an improvement. And, there are a bunch of things I want to watch eventually that aren't on Amazon for free.

The magic is that pipelight is actually still powered by Wine, we've just automated some of the more annoying steps through the use of packages. Pipelight even embeds its own custom version of Wine so you don't have to mess with any of that either.
pipelight is available for fedora 19 (but also works on 20).
