In November of last year, Microsoft release SFM, Silverlight Media Framework PDC Release.
We have been using IIS Smooth Streaming en different projects at Wortell.
On my current project for education we are using Silverlight Media Framework as well, where we are building exiting tooling around the SMF player for teachers and students.
With the SFM 1.1 release, progressive download is now fully supported making the SFM a fantastic framework to build on for any kind of video playing.
