Re: Any reason I can't use Visual Studio?
As sjspry said, the reason that they push WindRiver is because it includes the VxWorks cross compiler. You can actually upload compiled software to the cRio through the ftp interface (many teams use this to upload text files with configuration data). As far as I know, Visual Studio can't do the cross compiling that is required for the different processor/WindRiver embedded linux on the cRio.
On another note, WindRiver is not bad as an ide. It's actually built on Eclipse.
