What a mess Apple! Can't stream on ATV or my MBA. And what's with the foreign language dub over?

I'm so disappointed. Had my coffee and breakfast in front of me, kicking back on the couch... ready to stream via ATV3 on my 60" flat screen... and the whole thing is completely borked.
Random stops, and skips, a lady speaking a foreign language over the stream. Then it actually crashed my ATV! I literally had to unplug the ATV to reset it.
This is a fiasco. The irony is embarrassing - Apple, one of the largest and most significant tech companies on the planet can't properly run a live stream.

The translator is aggravating, they should have an option for translation not default. The stream itself is totally unlike Apple. I've resorted back to live blogs. Someone's getting fired! 
Worst Live Feed Evah
Well, like most of you, the live feed soon went to hell in a hand basket for me - had it on Apple TV for a few minutes, along with annoying foreign language overdub, then POW, goodbye feed.
And now Apple.com is saying I don't have permission to access the site. What a cluster-***** of a broadcast.

This is ridiculous!
You would think Apple would have everything ready. They knew their servers were going to get hammered, and what is with this Chinese/Japanese speaker translating what whoever is talking is saying?
At first I really thought I was hearing things, but then I came on here and confirmed there was a problem.
I was so excited to sit back and watch the Keynote but now Apple has ruined it.
Let's hope they put one up later and it gets rid of that chinese voice!
Way to blow Apple.

Same experience here in Belgium on ATV - freezing, skipping, restarting, annoying overdub. This is utterly pathetic.
Same on my iPhone, on my MacBook I don't even see a video in the first place.
Guess I will wait for the recording.
Really I'm shocked at how this could be such a shambles...

This is ********** terrible.
Whoever Apple has contracted in to run this broadcast should be sued into oblivion.

I wait until later. The video definition was all to hell too, so you couldn't really see the quality of the new super-duper screen, etc.
Embarrassing, Apple, plain embarrassing...

The quality of the photos on the 6 and 6 Plus far outweigh any room for griping over the (ever so slightly) protruding camera lens.
