To use true multicast then yes, you'd need multicast-capable hardware.

You can simulate multicast with sockets - the drawback being you multiply the bandwidth
requirement by the number of recipients.
You just need to keep track of all the destination addresses.
With UDP it's fairly simple since you can use sendto() to send to each destination.
With TCP, each destination connection needs a connected socket so it's slightly more complicated
(not much).

For a chat program where everyone talks to everyone, it may be simpler to have a "server" app
that everyone connects to. All messages go to the server which forwards them to all users.
That keeps the bandwidth requirement low for each user but the server needs good bandwidth.
For sound, the server could take all the incoming sound samples and mix them, then forward the
single mixed stream to all the connected users.
