This might be the most useless Apple Event in 2019 and I don't expect Apple to "blow my mind" anymore like that greedy Tim Cook said...

Apple's 2024 Event Plans: New Products Coming in 2024

Apple's never been competitive in the services area. Seeing them divert apparently large resources to all the new services makes me wonder about their focus going forward. My preference would be to focus on hardware and OS, YMMV.
$29 for 6 socks. I think we all know how Tim would innovate that product.
Can I pay $9.99 not to have my News app clogged with the likes of "sites like The New York Times and the Washington Post."?
The News app is so clogged with garbage news outlets like CNN and Buzzfeed and there is absolutely no option to ignore certain news outlets on the news feed. Totally worthless app.

Apple has almost never released Mac hardware in March....

iPod Hi-Fi. Look how proud.
I think he would love AirPods.
The National Enquirer and Weekly World News lol
I've been waiting for an updated iMac for over a year, getting close to looking up hackintosh recommendations.

Their news site has a pretty good track record at this point. It's 2019 and this is the world we live in.Apple considers BuzzFeed to be a news source?
This is pathetic. I'm so disappointed.
If all this is true, I'll stick with my preferred Pocketmags subscription safe in the knowledge that Apple's magazine, news and film subscription services won't be available in New Zealand anyway.
I still can't believe this event will be just about News and TV. There has to be more than that. I hope I'm pleasantly surprised
It’s funny when you’re at work listening to local radio and they say “according to Apple news website MacRumers” about a new Apple Event coming up.
This will be the first Apple Event that I could care less about. There's no way in the world that I would ever pay any amount of money to subscribe to those fake news outlets and it will be quite sometime before Apple can compete with Netflix, so I'll probably take a nap or clean out my sock drawer on March 25.
A news service that allowed full direct access to a large swath of uncurated content would be worth it. If for no other reason than to avoid so many different accounts.
in terms of hardware i wish they included at least 1 mac mini with a decent graphics chipset. (at least as good as a mid level imac) If one is using a wacom 24 inch display in crowded space an iMac is not an ideal proposition.
And like so many others STILL waiting on a new MacPro.

Curious what you consider non fake news outlets.
I disagree.
I expect nothing
(but disappointment)
Logic Pro X for iPad Pro, please.
One can dream
I absolutely love these Apple Event preview stories on MR. Year after year after year.
It's a real hoot seeing so many trying to outdo each other saying how bored they are! It could only be better if one could see who has the best accompanying juvenile eye roll.

$29 for 6 socks
That's entry level!
If you want the socks to actually fit its: $99 for 6 socks
$199 for 6 socks that fit and don't shrink in the wash
$299 for 6 socks that fit, don't shrink in the wash, and don't fade.
$399 for 6 socks that fit, don't shrink in the wash, don't fade, and don't require Apple branded sock garters to work. (Sock garters sold separately) (Sock garters start at $29) (colorful third party sock garters are rumored - they start at $19)
Remember that iPhoto to photobook service?
Remember Apple Music?
Remember iBooks and the magazines you could subscribe to?
Yeah but no thanks. Apple services sound nice on paper but always flop. The only way they would beat netflix is if they had the largest movie and tv show database in the world. Also, what a missed opportunity to release a new Apple TV.

Of course you can ignore specific news outlets in the Apple news app, and you’ve always been able to. 1) tap on an article from that source in the feed 2) tap the name of the news outlet in the header 3) tap the heart with a line through it. The app will stop showing news from that source. I’ll send you my bill for that $9.99.
"One more thing." Once upon a time, the company was known as Apple Computers.
Then it became just plain ol' "Apple."
On 25 March, Tim Apple will announce their new corporate name: "Apple Services."
