Pretty amazing. Looking at the future of TV broadcast here. Only a few minor hiccups once it loaded on ATV. Quality is great.

Well, if this isn't the most frustrating thing in the world. 50 mbps of network bandwidth here and I haven't been able to get it to start on either Apple TV or in iTunes.

Granted, they probably have 10 million people trying to view this.

What's potentially worse is that I just realized that iTunes has no indication as to status of the live stream. This is one of those cases were Apple over-simplified themselves into stupidity -- I can't tell if the server threw an error, if the connection was refused, or if it's just taking its sweet time buffering the stream. Come on, give us a status indicator!
 
Live TV streaming is not exactly ready for Prime Time in Seattle. Too bad we missed so much of the beginning, saw the last 4 songs...

Pretty sad, Apple!
 
Just wanted to come back and chime in, that if you watched the Grammies, you'd see that "it always comes back to the Beatles".

How fitting that "in the end" the show concluded with a bunch of greats rocking out to a Beatles song, with Paul himself leading the way.
 
OK, you made all of the Beatles fans mad (old people buy Macs too). You are correct about Apple, it is a media company. With each passing year Apple is more about selling content to use on their really great machines made for enjoying Apple content. The last thing the walled garden is about is hardware.

No, this is incorrect. The vast majority of apple revenues (> 90 %) come from selling hardware loaded with their own proprietary software. iPhone and iPad accounts for the bulk of their profits in recent years.

For comparison, how many media companies have ever been among the top public companies by market cap in the world? None? I rest my point.
