DRM. The year before Silverlight I could use Firefox and Mediaplayer Connectivity and open the stream in vlc. Which allowed true fullscreen on any monitor. Silverlight only worked in IE, was buggy, and only worked fullscreen on the primary monitor and went out of fullscreen mode once you clicked anywhere on another monitor. At least flash uses any monitor for fullscreen but still returns to window mode when you click somewhere else.
