So we're focusing on Media Source and our built-in DASH support is disabled, since we're not aware of anyone who wants/needs to use it. However, IE11 apparently has built-in DASH support, so maybe we'll need to enable ours after all. Depends on whether sites will use it. I don't know if it's possible for apps to implement HLS themselves using Media Source. Even if it is, apps would have to opt into that; it wouldn't be automatic.
