If Silverlight is dropped like Adobe has dropped Flash support for mobiles, I'm not sure what Netflix will do.
I know Microsoft wants to get rid of silver light, but I think mobile support, at least for Windows Phone, will remain. WP7 already relies too heavily on Silverlight and to drop it now would pull the feet out from under Windows Phone.
