[mattopotamus]

Wow. HBO only on the ATV at first

 

[Trebuin]

TV update?

Possibly, they're adding the HBO streams to the lineup...likely a subscription.

edit: yep, subscription to HBO now

 

[alvindarkness]

No, it's a lack of interest compared an an iPhone event.

haha

 

[TheDeviceUser]

Don't think we've seen an CEO other than Apple's on stage since 2007.

 

[Dekema2]

Why are they having this HBO guy up there???

 

[uid15]

Yeah don't worry, I'm not the one with the wheel. Buddy and myself are watching/listening.

Ah super - sorry for going all pre-judgemental on you, please accept my apology.

 

[Wild-Bill]

Why are they having this HBO guy up there???

He seems like a tool.

And it appears he can't say more than 3 words without looking at the teleprompter.

 

[caligurl]

apple screws up their live feeds every.freaking.time

 

[budselectjr]

Why are they having this HBO guy up there???

Stand alone subscription to HBO with Apple being the exclusive partner at launch.

 

[ZacNicholson]

HBO thing is kind of cool, but expensive, and i use KODI so i get all my tv and movies for free

 

[TallManNY]

Richard of HBO showing folks how you do hollywood. You don't bother buttoning your shirt, but you darn well haven't missed a tanning sessions in the last ten years.

 

[SmOgER]

No lag! Hooray!

 

[Dekema2]

He seems like a tool.

Yeah like a snake oil salesman

 

[uid15]

HBO?

Tim, curb your enthusiasm. HBO guy is Mafioso? LOL...

 

[ck2875]

^Yes. We're all here for the 'Game of Thrones' trailer.

He looked like a bronze statue

 

[DavidBlack]

Yes. We're all here for the 'Game of Thrones' trailer.

My thoughts exactly...

 

[Trebuin]

Stream IS UP, and is working in VLC:

The warm up music is lovely

Thanks for the stream, it helps with the volume

Loaded it in VLC to get the 200% vol.

 

[KdParker]

So...does this mean we can get away from HBO with our cable companies?

As long as we stream with a Apple device.

What about Showtime?

 

[perkedel]

no streaming on my 2014 MBA 10.10.2, but there is on my iPhone 6 plus 8.1.3.
How strange. Maybe because I have ad block on Safari.

 

[Opunium]

Tim: First, Apple TV

"Finally Apple, thank you for an update! Praise the mighty Apple!"

Tim: Here is HBO, Sex and the city!

"My god Tim..."

Watching this keynote and posting here makes me feel like I'm posting on the Buffalo Bills forums and watching the football game

 

[TsMkLg068426]

We finally have good news for Apple TV fans, the new Apple TV will finally stream in 4K also audio will finally be in DTS-HD and we will have our own streaming service so you will not worry about those disgusting greedy cable companies. Next I would like to surprise people but I can not wait to let everyone know that Beats will become part of iTunes Match a no longer separate service.....


And one last thing Charter Communications will finally allow customers access HBO Go and Showtime Anytime on Apple TV.

 

[uid15]

No lag! Hooray!

There's a HUGE lag.... the lag between now and watch stuff...

 

[ZacNicholson]

Surprised no sex scenes in that GOT promo. They have like 5 every episode.
