So, Silverlight 3 was released today, and the Expression Studio is available in a public release candidate, including the awesome Expression Encoder 2.

I'll have a bunch more to say about it, of course, but first off let me just provide links to the important stuff relating to the media side of things.

Alas, the RC of that isn't available for download quite yet. Soon, I'm told.

And I had this interview on Streaming Media about the new media features:
