I think the whole thing is sort of doomed from the start. Something like this needs to be embraced and implemented in new and creative ways by creative people to even have a chance. Pitty that a lot of creative people would rather be sticking with their adobe suite, especially since the whole photoshop/illustrator/flash work flow has been better setup. I'm also not that keen on handing over control of the animation code to the developers. They tend to make things fit with a "good enough/looks ok to me" attitude.
Personally I'm not all that keen on doing something in a format where all of the mac users who visit the site will have to download a microsoft plugin for their browser when the same thing could be dont in flash and require no popups for the user.
After visiting the silverlight demonstartion sites I can say I havent seen anything yet that couldnt have been built identically in flash.
