===M3U8=== The [[Unicode]] version of M3U is M3U8, which uses [[UTF-8]]-encoded characters. M3U8 files are the basis for the [[HTTP Live Streaming]] (HLS) format originally developed by [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] to stream video and radio to [[iOS]] devices, and which is now a popular format for adaptive streaming in general. The 2015 proposal for the HLS playlist format uses UTF-8 exclusively and does not distinguish between the "m3u" and "m3u8" file name extensions.<ref name="HLSdraft">{{cite web|url=https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-17.html|title=HTTP Live Streaming|first1=Roger|last1=Pantos|first2=William|last2=May|website=tools.ietf.org}}</ref>
