Netflix supports HTML5, they don't "need" Silverlight. https://gigaom.com/2014/11/26/netflix-silverlight-chrome/ https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23742

Running Firefox 41 and it still loads the Silverlight plugin and explicitly asks for it if disabled... Also, Netflix needing Silverlight drove the development of Pipelight for Linux: http://pipelight.net/cms/about.html

It got my attention that Chrome supports HD "up to" 720p, unlike the rest that get up to 1080p. Why would that be?
