This stuff with stars talking up their shows is EXACTLY why I didn’t want this services stuff gumming up WWDC ala Drake or Iovine. Thank goodness it’s all gonna be done with now.

The Apple TV app built into smart TVs is like Inception.

Smart TVs already do what the Apple TV app does . . . except for having Apple TV Plus.

It would be more logical to just add an Apple TV Plus channel.

Imagine if every app on a smart TV also included access to every other app. It doesn’t make sense.

For example, you can open up Showtime through the Apple TV app. But all smart TVs already have a Showtime app.

Apple is essentially creating a new smart TV OS that runs as an app on smart TVs (minus access to Netflix). I’m not sure why the manufacturers would allow this. I can see why they want the Apple TV Plus shows, but not to control access to the other apps' content.

They have yet to show one clip from any of these shows. Why do I get the feeling Tim will announce coming this fall with no pricing announced today.

Isn’t this crap already there ? What’s new about this ?

You can download all content to watch offline, is that new, can you do that with your Directv HBO authorized content on the Roku? Other than that and that the Apple TV plus will be brought to the Mac in the Fall, I don't see anything new.

How about we imagine we Homo 'sapiens sapiens' actually surviving ourselves and how we did it?

I wouldn't bet on it although I seriously hope that we'll keep the WWDC for iOS, MacOS and hardware now.

How we pointed and laughed at Samsung and Google's presentations.

Apple would never do that we snickered… oh, we laughed… and laughed…

And then. Today happened.

Dear friend - we always disagree on PRSI. We have been disagreeing for a few years now.
Today - I tell you, my friend - we are together. Not only we agree, but we lost important neurons to this shameful keynote.
Today, my friend, I extend my hand to you.
In peace,
