I keep seeing this in LOTS of Mac blog/support site: tha Silverlight won't run on iPad or iO systems. Not true! I have an ipad2 and a Mac mini and stream Netflix everyday!!

Yes this thread is 5 years old. Silverlight does not work on the iPad or iPhone. Netflix uses something called HTML5 on these devices to play back videos and does not require Silverlight in any way. Macs using OS X 10.10 don't require Silverlight to play back Netflix either.
Here is a 4 year old link explaining this: http://mashable.com/2010/12/03/netflix-html5/
