What is the point of ASP.net AJAX in ASP.net MVC?

So, ASP.net MVC comes with jQuery and ASP.net Ajax by default. Although the examples of using jQuery are obvious and many, I'm just wondering what is the ASP.net Ajax point? If I just have my controller actions return JSON, do I need it? In addition, any "old" ASP.net controls only work if you use the Webforms viewer (I think I want to use another, but it’s not).

What does ASP.net Ajax offer in MVC?

ASP.NET AJAX is slightly different from JQuery, it is a kind of large library of materials and allows you to use similar APIs, as in typical .NET programming. You have a few more string functions and so on. That being said, I generally get around ASP.NET AJAX in general and find most of what I need in jQuery and other small libraries. ASP.NET AJAX is a little heavy for my tastes, but it has its own capabilities.
