Re: [media-and-entertainment] Use of WebRTC for media content distribution

The topic was discussed in a recent call of the Media & Entertainment Interest Group:
- [Minutes of the call](https://www.w3.org/2018/10/02-me-minutes.html)
- [Intro slides from John](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1eDIUzwMeug_XAsRHOu-mzojBPWjlfOedodfkpKQ3tDk)
- [Technical slides from Peter](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1_xQSoIdN-srjBc-GE_vuQMkxkaer2G-mZBchLPTyY20)

Peter mentioned possible alternatives that could use WebRTC technologies to distribute content. One of them would be using QUIC transport coupled with MSE. This would require pushing the [QUIC API for WebRTC](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-quic/) spec forward. The WebRTC Working Group is undecided for now on whether to adopt the spec within the Working Group and looking for concrete use cases.

The Interest Group could perhaps help by voicing its support for this work, by pointing out media use cases that would benefit from such an API. Would someone be willing to take the lead on drafting such a message to the WebRTC WG?
