Silverlight & Blockbuster brings you Jackass 2.5, for free
 

In one of the most bizarre agreements I have yet reported on, the makers of Jackass 1 and 2 have agreed to team up with Blockbuster and Microsoft to release Jackass 2.5, for free. On December 19th, Blockbuster will premiere the (first) full-length feature film directly to online audiences using Silverlight. “This is one of the largest projects in Blockbuster history and it's all made possible by using the rich media CDN from Limelight Networks and Silverlight” reads a post on Microsoft’s Channel 10. If you’re interested, head over to www.blockbuster.jackassworld.com this Wednesday (time unknown as of this newspost). It's all so clear now - this is how Microsoft plans to push Silverlight!
