Link-local multicast like mDNS can be a bit simpler to wrangle than routed multicast. For the link-local case a lot of the interop failure cases with network equipment just devolves into "and it turned into a broadcast" instead of "and it wasn't forwarded". You can still run into some multiple interface issues though.
