It's not pointless. Multicast isn't widely deployed so it's nice to hear bits 
and pieces about it.

Which reminds me, does anyone have any _good_ book/online recommendations 
about multicast and deploying it (especially how IGMP/PIM/RD/etc actually 
work together, not just the usual "multicast is almost like broadcast; these 
are multicast addresses; sparse/dense are bit different; here you go")?
