I would disagree quite strongly with that.
C# has a few pockets where it is popular, but mostly because management feel "safer" with a Microsoft product. There are a couple of language features where C# learned from Java, but I don't know of anyone running Java who would even consider switching to C# for a second.
Google, Salesforce etc. are all built with Java. The big player I know of that uses MS tech is StackOverflow. Even Facebook uses some Java (to what extent, I don't know).
