There are thousands of new APIs and hundreds of new features for this version, but the really important ones can be broken down into four points:
* Media: GPU hardware acceleration, new codec support (H.264, AAC, MPEG-4), raw bitstream Audio/Video API, and improved logging for media analytics
* Graphics: GPU Acceleration and hardware compositing, perspective 3D, bitmap and pixel API, pixel shader effects, and Deep Zoom improvements
* Application development: Deep linking, navigation and SEO, improved text quality, multi-touch support, 60+ controls available, and library caching support
* Data: Data-binding improvements, validation error templates, server data push improvements, binary XML networking support, and multi-tier REST data support
In terms of streaming, Microsoft says Silverlight 3 brings "high-definition video in full-screen mode, with stutter-free live and on-demand video" to the table. There's also Smooth Streaming (demo), which allows one to start playing an HD video at any point in time, instantaneously. Version 3 allows developers to create Web applications that can exist outside the browser. How does it work? Open a browser page. Launch the Silverlight application. Close the browser. The Silverlight program lives on.
