That's true only for SSM ("source-specific multicast") streams.  For ASM 
("any-source multicast") streams, RTCP "RR" reports are sent to the whole 
multicast group - not back to the server.

No, because each participant in the multicast session - i.e., the sender, and 
each of the recipients - has a different SSRC.
