Can you name some companies in which he has stocks ? He is doing something good. Appreciate it if you can. And hopefully you know that he has promised to give away most of his wealth to charity. Even if it requires silver light, ain't it better than not having the videos available to you at all ? Also, it is a part of windows research team work. If google can force you to not use ie, why can't windows research team force you to use their technology ? And this is my general observation. People liking linux or similar *nix systems, take it too personally, and start cribbing at anything and everything microsoft does. It Doesn't matter to them if it is actually good stuff.

Well, I would anyways want you to substantiate your claim that bill gates has shares in those drug companies and that he is actually making more money from investing in those companies than the charity he is giving away on those drugs.
