resize your normal browser and put it over the eve screen where you would have your eve browser. they don't want to build more into the eve browser because it causes it to become more unstable/insecure.

That doesn't make it relevant. It just means Netflix made a crappy design choice.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I'd MUCH rather see HTML5 support. Silverlight is just something MS invented and will be forgotten soon. Also, netflix is not available worldwide, so implementing features for a small portion of the players isnt likely to happen.
With HTML5 though you can implement a (future) standard which allows many more multimedial features - also the watching of videos.
