Your first sentence claiming that apps must be in the Mac app store in order to use low latency HLS video streaming doesn't appear to be right. The help.apple.com support page you link to says that the API is limited to developers who have Apple Developer Program membership, but that page doesn't indicate that the apps must be distributed via the app store. That's a big difference. Is that limitation documented somewhere else?
- kartickv 6y agoI updated the first sentence to add "or granted a special entitlement by Apple. In either case, that's not how an open platform works." Even if no entitlement is needed, you shouldn't have to pay a $99 rent to the platform owner to use certain APIs. That wouldn't be an open platform.
