Yes, that’s a big driver for bier. The challenge is content. I remember
watching NASA on multicast (bone) at uni well over 20 years ago. Much of the
current use of multicast seems to be local (like Bonjour in a lan, or control
protocols over a site), last mile, or on private networks (Stig says Cisco
multicast is used by private financial ticker-tape type applications).
Much of the original case for multicast seems to have been assimilated by CDN
infrastructure, though that may not be great for live TV. There must be a
LOT more football streaming now fans can’t be at grounds, via various
services like iFollow in the UK. How is that done?
