AV1 support is already available in libwebrtc! So when I started building Pion the target use case was to make it easier to build scalable servers. Instead of interacting with a WebRTC servers REST API to query information/load balance I wanted to have it all in one code base. It also is really useful to have Media+Transport decoupled.
