tough comparison,

when mosaic hit the streets everyone instantly understood it
and it exploded onto the network.  multicast is a wonderful
technology but it's proponents have been searching
for an mass appeal application for years.  it's elegance is
lost on the common man so let's declare victory and get on with
it already.  i'm quite happy to use it as a support
tool as well as a tool to deliver real time audio/video and mass
file distribution.
