Can't abandon HLS because Apple won't implement DASH.

However the main point of HSL and DASH was the ability to dynamically
vary bitrate according on network load - and the BBC doesn't do that.
BBC also don't use the metadata features of the formats or segments -
all BBC specials - implemented in a way no one else uses.
The only feature that is implemented is a "skip back" but HLS can do
that as well - so why bother with DASH.
