Certainly. But since WPP doesn't have nearly the quality overhead of AVC slices, I can imagine that it might become standard in general encodes.

For my professional use, I generally can tune my encodes to devices and vise versa.

In VP9 tiles are mandatory for picture widths greater than 4096.
Well, I think 8K video is probably farther out than VP10 .

How to tiles compare in practice to Slices/WPP as a parallelization mechanism? Say, 128x128 tiles?
