Netflix announced on Friday the beta release of Microsoft’s Silverlight for Mac and Windows computers.  PC users have been able to watch instantly using Internet Explorer for a few months, leaving Mac users jealous and desperately waiting.  Now, thanks to Silverlight, Intel-based Macs (sorry PPC folks) can stream movies and TV with Safari and Firefox.  Netflix members, go to the opt-in page to become a beta tester and download Spotlight. Netflix remind us in Friday’s post that the beta player may contain bugs and that not all titles are available.
