the only reason i downloaded it was for netflix instant watch. Its worked well for that.
Is this a whole (relatively) new proprietary language?

What are the advantages? What does it do well?

Sliverlight is better for more complex application. It renders video faster and better but the latest flash beta might kick its ass.
Since it's based on .net, it can plug in to existing enterprise solutions with ease.

Having to download a new plugin seems like a major shortcoming.
