MEF is about wiring things up for you. You can see this in the Tetris example. To add the additional shapes to the game, all you do in the code is call catalog.addAssembly and MEF takes care of loading it into the AppDomain, finding the types in the assembly that the game is importing, and instantiating them. me: (wow, feels weird to be talking to myself)
spring.net is a suite of components, but I’m assuming that you mean the DI feature of spring.net.

Primarily, DI is not about extensibility. It’s about de-coupling you architecture. Removing some of the jumping through hoops that you have to do when programming against interfaces and making it easier. You can achieve extensibility with DI by manually wiring up your dependencies in some sort of config file or maybe a fluent interface, but you still have to tell the DI container what parts depend on what.
