I just installed the pre-release version of IE11 the other day, Craig, which is
supposed to incorporate HTML5. And yet, just like my previous experiences with
uninstalling Flash, the web sites I go to prefer Flash when you have it
installed. Still now. Default to Flash seems to be the norm, whether on YouTube
or most others. (I think Amazon used Silverlight, oddly enough. But I saw
somewere that Silverlight is going away.)

Come now. The point is, any device that is Internet capable can be used to
connect to these services, Craig. You don't need some special-purpose,
restrictive Netflix STB or AppleTV, Roku, or deliberately crippled "connected
TV" sets. Use a decent tablet, for instance. Even a decent tablet, such as the
Surface Pro, including the 2 version of it, wouldn't have to depend on "apps."
