Live Apple Event Coverage: 'It's Show Time' [Keynote Ended]

[macduke]

Hopefully we don't end up with very many events like this in the future and they can get it all out of the way today.

 

[Heelpir8]

I've never laughed so hard reading a MacRumors live event thread (long time lurker). LOL

 

[derek]

WSJ = News Corp again again again :-(

 

[sickoagb]

Loved that last presenter and his Off White Converses. Hope to see him in more events!

 

[Jeezeypeeps]

Next up. Apple has built a new valve radio.

 

[frosty18]

I bet it’s 40 a month??

Apple sure knows how to make something seem more appealing than it really is.

 

[Derekuda]

Did someone forget to tell Apple that no one pays for outdated magazines when their are literally thousands of websites that carry the same news and content literally seconds after the information breaks?!?

 

[routine_analyst]

What in the hell is this guy wearing?

I get it... culture... but, really? what the f? overalls? jump suit? mechanics bibs?

The guy (also) sucked at presenting... so why was he chosen? *crickets* hmmm I wonder...

 

[Janichsan]

Apple News+ will take Apple News to a "whole new level."

That's great for the three countries where Apple News is available.

 

[Wowereit]

"We don't allow advertisers to track you"

Playing the privacy card is really smart, it has become a big pro argument for Apple over the last years.

 

[arkitect]

Christ… Apple's Whoop Whoop machine is really working overtime today.

I assume these are Apple workers happy to get an hour or so off away from the office. Hooked up to a Performance Excite-O-Meter… the more you Whoop! Whoop! The better your end of year review will go…

Infantile.

 

[BuddyTronic]

Were you paid by the same person who paid the lady to say "Wow" when introducing magazines?

I’m paid by my stocks in Apple - But yeah I’m a major fanboy. I used to spend $400 per month on magazines when I was developing my business back in the 90’s. Haven’t bought more than $50 of magazines per year for the last 15 years

 

[dannyyankou]

Family sharing for $9.99. That's a damn good deal.

 

[9081094]

Apple doesn’t know what you read = interested in and Siri doesn’t understand you. I see a parallel

 

[Jeezeypeeps]

Now we're on to the ridiculous price comparisons. Nobody, literally nobody, has ever paid $8000 to subscribe to magazines.

 

[78Bandit]

You guys speak for yourselves. I’m excited to finally get all my magazines all in one app and to finally get rid of all the other individual apps.

You don't have Texture? That would have done exactly what you have been wanting. The only difference I've seen so far is the curation of articles of interest between different magazines.

 

[AngerDanger]

No tracking?! Finally, I can read my niche fetish magazines and have peace of mind!

 

[BMcCoy]

Apple sure knows how to make something seem more appealing than it really is.

Isn’t that the story of every Apple keynote ever..!!

 

[frosty18]

9.99 a month !! Shocking! I’m impressed

 

[Derekuda]

But Why??? Why didn't someone tell this man this looks bad!?

 

[Kendre]

“We don’t allow advertisers to track you” Probably will be the biggest applause of the event.

 

[Icaras]

Give it up for Apple.

$9.99 a month for all magazine subscriptions.

WIN

 

[skippermonkey]

Magazines are antiquated.

Digital magazines are antiquated.

They're announcing something I'm surprised didn't already exist and didn't already disappear.

Digital magazine have been around for a decade. Very few people bought them.

 

[Wowereit]

2 countries at launch, even worse than expected.

 

[Shanghaichica]

Ugh I guess it’s US only then. And we won’t be getting the TV service in the UK either.

 

[MacGekko]

Did this guy escape from the Dharma Initiative?

"Inside Man" Reboot?
