Apple Sends Out Media Invites for an 'It's Show Time' Event on March 25

Soooo new Apple TV service... new news service... New Apple TV (that’s a given). New iPads. New iPod touch. Probably a new XS in a new color. Followed by new iMacs..
Doubt we see a new Mac Pro

Nothing special just GOT TWD Punisher DareDevil, etc. Disney? lol a very successful subscription service. I have kids and don’t know anybody with kids that subscribed to their service. And by looking from a non-american point of view it’s a total failure.

Disney+ hasn’t even been launched yet. How could they subscribe? You’re clearly behind on what’s coming.

Not holding out for the new "Pro" :)

Lol, the new Pro? Would you ever invest for your business in über expensive hardware while not knowing its future proof and after a few months finding out there are faster solutions available for a fraction of the price Apple is offering. I can already predict with 99,9 % guarantee that the new Mac Pro won’t sell. Even if it’s going to be an awesome machine. That’s because Apple already alienated their core customers.

I don’t know what you’re watching but there are plenty of modern successful shows without sex scenes and brutal violence. If Disney can launch an entire susbscriptiom service for which we’ve already seen a lot of interest, then Apple will have no issue staying at or below that bar.

Yes there are "plenty of modern successful shows without sex scenes and brutal violence" but they can exist on current networks that choose to show adult shows AS WELL.

Disney have said "there won't be any R-rated or adult-oriented content on the service"

If Apple choose to "have no issue staying at or below that bar" then they've already lost to networks that show a multitude of different age-related content.

BTW using Disney as an example is strange. Disney is aimed at kids; is that what Apple is going for?

Really, I’m not trying to be pessimistic or negative in any way, but there is absolutely no indication whatsoever an iPhone SE two would be revived during this Keynote, and more specifically, at all in 2019. Given the context of this specific Keynote, I don’t think an iPhone is in the works at all.

Ahh okay ... anyway I don’t think parents will subscribe another service for 5€ or 10€ per month beside Amazon or Netflix for their kids. Netflix, Amazon already has enough content for kids, and now a day kids already consume too much. I say they will fail...

I miss the ‘one more thing...’ and always suspect it at the end of the show because I can’t believe that’s all they’ve come up with...:(

One more thing will be AirPower finally getting a release date
 
There's no need for a new apple tv. The hardware does everything that is needed currently. You won't see a new one until 8k becomes more of a thing. Everything it needs can be done via software updates.

Meh, not feeling any excitement over this. I've got a 13" IPP and last year's iPad, and my 7+ is still going fairly strong. I'll just catch the recap on MacRumors. 12.2 doesn't look to be much of an improvement, either. I didn't have the connection problems some of the members with newer phones have had, which I find strange.

Apple joins an already saturated market. Exciting stuff.

I'm currently subscribed to three streaming services, I can't see adding a fourth. And I already like how I get my news. So this event probably won't be relevant to me. I'll be glad to see the debut of AirPower or updated AirPods, though. An Apple SmartTV would also be interesting. I would expect it to have amazing picture quality!

If no new products are shown, hopefully a press release follows with the new iPad and Mini, along with the typical Spring collection of bands, cases, etc.

You know why they’ve set revenue records? Because the components of the ancient crap doesn’t cost a cent to buy and they still sell it at above premium prices. Those margins must be around 70 or 80%.

This could be a very good day for me. I subscribe to a number of news sources. WSJ, NYT, WP, Economist, and a couple of local/regional interest dailies as well. I'm paying pretty darn close to $100 a month on news. If Apple can get me a lot of the same sources for $10 you can bet your bottom dollar I'll be signing up on day one.

I'm glad someone is actually excited. (being serious actually...I'm a bit envious)

I agree - it may be a great deal for users in a position like yours, no question.
