No one's considering NUT as a replacement for .rar either because it's for a different purpose. Sadly MPEG-TS has an incestuous purpose, mixing multiple logical layers into one. That doesn't mean we should copy it.
Even if we copied stupid MPEG-TS stuff in NUT, still no one would use it instead of MPEG-TS. They have lots of stupid legacy reasons for wanting backwards, ill-designed stuff from MPEG specs. Our target audience should not be people who lack any rational capabilities or else we have to make something lowered down to their intelligence level...
It's nice to see the old Rich Felker is back, and that he is still the expert on everything he's never been near. -- Måns Rullgård mans@mansr.com
