So, here’s my brief comment in the NYT blog:

Why Silverlight?

Seriously why should I install yet another piece of software that attempts to violate my personal privacy if it's a one-trick pony?
Heck, if the IT staff at the Times can't be bothered to learn Cocoa, Flash, Java, AIR, or to make an app that works also on the iPhone SDK, why even bother?

Can some explanation of the reasoning on Silverlight be forthcoming?

The Silverlight website is, in a few words, “droll in a whorish club dress”.

Just to add,
I’m still on Mac OS 10.4.10 and this Times Reader requires at least 10.4.11

Real pity about Silverlight. I’m no fan of it. What’s the point of creating a new competitor to Flash that doesn’t even sound nice?
I don’t want to have to install any additional things to run an app. And as long as Silverlight isn’t included on new Macs, I won’t consider installing it.

This may seem silly to some but I stopped the install process once I got to the “you have to install some Microsoft crapware in order to continue” part.
