Currently got an issue where I am unable to retrieve a HLS playlist due to Twitch.TV's CORS settings. JSON API calls was easily solved with JSONP, however getting the HLS playlist has proven to be a minor challenge.

Possible solutions:

Host a server-side application and proxy the requests through there(kinda goes against the whole idea of the "client-side only" branch.

So far the temporary solution is to host an API that provides the HLS stream until a more suitable solution can be found.
