[Neal Becker]

I see with fedora20 + current chrome stable, netflix now works!  And, even works 
well with my chromecast.

Wow!

Will it do Netflix in HD?

Most Android devices cannot do Netflix in HD for some (intentional?)
reason but some Nexus Android devices can.  I don't know the rhyme or
reason to this and the Netflix web page isn't at all clear.

"Netflix HD playback is available on select KitKat (Android OS 4.4) based 
devices."

I think it always worked on Chrome for Windows.  But, FWIW, it for sure works on Windows
now. 

Now, all I'm asking for is for the Sling Media and Chrome folks to get together and
make it work on Linux.  :-)

I mentioned Linux explicitly since that was the only platform relevant here
but probably others as well over time since Silverlight has been deprecated
by Microsoft.

Silverlight is one option however it is not supported in many platforms
including Android and Linux and Chrome OS and the alternative HTML5 based
interface is now directly supported in Chrome on Linux
