My distate here is based on the fact that Microsoft does not provide a
version of their software for my platform, and moonlight does not actually
make a difference (much like how many flash sites do not care if you have  
Gnash installed).

But ultimately, as long as it's not the -only- way of getting that
information then I guess it doesn't really matter.
