I guess it's no different to when different browsers support different media encoding formats. But to me it makes no sense if every browser supports a different manifest format. That just increased the complexity of the Web manifold - seeing as for the "Web" to work, you need browsers and servers and proxies. In short, I do see a need for an adaptive streaming manifest format to be standardized across browsers. >> I am saying we need to wait >> until that time.
