Sorry, in this case I did not mean it that way, I meant that
our demuxer doesn't use quite as many tricks to compensate for
the mov/mp4 issues ("crappyness") as QuickTime does.
E.g. I am quite certain that QuickTime supports streaming
non-interleaved mov (used in multi-bitrate movs) by openening
two http connections.
I don't really think it is worth improving it for this use case though.
