The BBC actually did some really interesting work last year on using MPEG-DASH with Multicast with a demo at IBC, the research can be found here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/dynamic-adaptive-streaming...
Only downside is that multicast sucks over wifi when many devices (like in a corporate env) are all trying to view a multicast stream. The time slice allotted to multicast is way too small to handle it. I really wish there was a spec created for wifi simplex connections where a channel could be reserved for broadcast with one signal to be consumed by many receiver devices.
