...owner for DASH. Concerning the purpose of adaptative streaming, just like Brad said, there is the "unpredictible bandwith drop" use case. But, like I said earlier, I am more interested in the P2P streaming useage of DASH : Clients will be able to exchange DASH fragment over WebRTC's Datachannel, so that less bandwith is consumed on the icecast server.

Daniel, I won't make any points regarding DASH's fit with Icecast, but I wanted to address your statement that there is no purpose for adaptive streaming. Cell phone connections are fairly terrible and inconsistent. Even if you have a solid signal on a 4G technology, you could walk around a corner and it will disappear. What works at 3mbit/s one minute might be 10kbit/s the next.
