This could be very good news indeed. Does any one know if Pipelight works for Amazon video? I use Linux at work and want to convert my home theater PC at home.

You can watch Amazon Instant Video in a web browser with Flash after installing the deprecated hal and libhal1 packages. I don't know whether that will enable it to work with something like XBMC though.

I have read this thread with interest as I was looking at using Blinkbox (uses Silverlight) but since decided not to use.

For your information and for those interested whilst I was researching the use of Blinkbox, I found this article : "Pipelight - Silverlight in Linux Got a New Ubuntu PPA."

Go to UbuntuHandbook.org and search "Silverlight" - ("http://ubuntuhandbook.org/?s=silverlight")

Pipelight, is described as a browser plug-in of which allows Silverlight in your Linux browser the PPA of which includes the required Wine packages. The PPA supports Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty, Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy, Ubuntu 13.04 Raring, Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal, Ubuntu 12.04, Linux Mint and their derivatives.

I don’t know if this works but thought you guys may want to take a look.
