Exclusive NAB Interview: Sean Alexander, Director of Silverlight Media, Microsoft

I had a chance to interview Sean Alexander at NAB just a day or two after the surprise announcement of Redmond's new media player, set to take over where Windows Media Player left off... and a whole lot more.

Find out how Microsoft plans to out-do past Web/Livingroom convergence attempts like Web TV and MS Media Center and give developers AND content creators unprecedented support in the deployment platform. Meet Silverlight. Sean Alexander addresses how content creators will create Silverlight compatible files, what the workflow will be like for editors working in traditional NLE editing applications like Final Cut, Avid, Sony Vegas and Premiere Pro. This ended up being quite an interesting interview. Microsoft is very excited about this... is everyone else?
