Hi,

Another potential use-case SPUD could help solve is multipath UDP. I do not have enough insight regarding bits on the wire to accomplish this but to me it would be a compelling usecase.

It might:
  - Provide easy “media mobility” when a device switches network.
  - Better throughput (Not sure about this..)

Since we already have this for TCP and there is a multi-path RTP draft there seems to be some interest in solving this.
