Funny, I don't know many ASP developers who are all that eager to learn other technologies. I also don't see that many Java developers jumping up and down to say "gosh, I gotta go learn perl or I won't be able to get a job". That's not to say your prospects might not be a bit brighter in terms of sheer financial gain hitching onto the MS bandwagon - they're big, have name recognition, and it's often an easy sale. But don't assume that you need 10 languages under your belt. It helps, but it most likely won't instantly get you better results.
