Microsoft has announced that its Silverlight Streaming beta is to be discontinued sometime in the future, but will be replaced by a service based on Windows Azure.
The news was first reported on LiveSide.net, as well as the Silverlight Streaming blog. However, Microsoft has provided information for users who want to know what they can do in the meantime. According to the Microsoft blog:
Microsoft further explained: “Since May 2007, we have been offering a free beta service to host Silverlight applications and videos. This service is being discontinued to make way for a new Windows Azure-based service. Once this new service is launched, the current Silverlight Streaming beta service will eventually be taken down.”
Meanwhile, Microsoft says all user content is safe and the blog post provides steps for retrieving Silverlight content.
