Live Coverage of Apple's 2010 Fall Media Event

I'll never get why Apple has to take down all their Apple online stores for hours before the event. Do they not have the capability of changing their webpage and adding new products in real time?

Showmanship

No other consumer technology company's product announcements are like Apple's. It's all part of the show.
 
I'll be sitting in my university's computer lab, watching this on my iphone because 98% of the computers here run Windows :(

Mmm I can't believe this. Maybe Apple will post a link for Quicktime X and it never stops playing. Can't believe they are gonna say "reopen every time it stops".

Apple isn't going to say anything about VLC. They have already told you what you need to watch the stream.

This concept isn't just about a live stream. It's also Steve showing the world what HTTP live streaming is supposed to do.

No. For supported systems (Quicktime X, OS X 10.6, iPhone, iPad, etc...) it will work as expected. Live continous stream.

The workaround is for people who don't have a supported system and just have VLC.

I'm super-psyched, all downloads halted - bandwidth cleared!:D
I imagine the line outside looks something like this:

So it appears I'd be better off using my iPod touch at this point, than dealing with the hassle of getting it on my PC.

Here's a thought: What if Apple could allow the new AppleTV to not only watch OnDemand content via streaming, but also allow LIVE content (sporting events, concerts) to be streamed to it?

About QT X for windows: They would have to do it if they want to allow streaming through iTunes.

If that were the case, I'd buy immediately. The only thing keeping me from dropping satellite is live broadcasts. Have to have my football!

Can't wait. Will I watch it on my mac, iPad or iPhone. !!!
