MOQ-n-Roll: Live Sports Watch Parties

Live sports watch parties must deliver broadcast content reliably while enabling low-latency group interaction. We address these conflicting requirements using MOQ Transport (MOQT) through a dual-pipe architecture. The context pipe carries the main program over reliable QUIC streams, enforcing a spoiler prevention model that keeps participants synchronized. The excitement pipe carries participant audio and video, selecting transport primitives by modality: unreliable datagrams minimize delay for independent audio frames, while multiplexed (reliable) streams with early discard preserve decoding order for video without accumulating latency.
