Totally agree. It was/is a pointless stand off over a matter of principle. And Apple were probably in the right.
You still can't stream IPTV using multicasting on Google wifi. You can argue that its virtually impossible to do over wifi, but there is no excuse for it not to work over a cable plugged in to Google wifi. Google are not very good at updates that customers actually want.
It does appear to be an Apple specific issue but given Apple products make up a significant portion of the world's devices, it's surprising that someone like Google have not solved for this.
