Live Coverage of Apple's WWDC 2015 Keynote: iOS 9, OS X 10.11, Apple Music, and More

[Dekema2]

As I said earlier I wouldn't drop 9.99 for this service when I can get HQ music from Spotify for 4.99.

 

[mmomega]

just put the dev portal back up.
I'm not interested in having to wait for this One More thing failure that is already included in iOS8.4Beta
And I mean the presentation as a failure, I like and enjoy the products they put out but the entire presentation today is something I could have missed and been perfectly ok, this definitely wasn't the typical WWDC that I wait weeks for.

5% inaccuracy rate

For me, it's like 5% accuracy rate with siri

 

[Tech198]

u can't argue with something for free for three months...

After all HBO Now was free for a time as well initially.

 

[AustinIllini]

Apple is officially "uncool" following this presentation.

Cool people don't watch Apple presentations. So sure. Whatever you say.

 

[HenryDJP]

3 hours of nothing

It's actually been nearly 2-1/2 hours. Don't exaggerate.

 

[syphern]

Lolol saudis in the end

what's up with the weird asian kid doing situps

Apple Music. It's really amazing.. how much money Apple is going to make.

 

[td2243]

Geez, enough ***** videos! "Officially uncool" is dead on.

 

[macduke]

Apple Music on Android. Shots fired! Three months free? OK. Worst case I go back to Rdio. $14.99 for six family members? That's pretty huge. I'll never have to buy my kid any music when she gets older lol. I pay $14.99 for just my wife and I right now.

[GaresTaylan]

They should have made it $4.99 for the regular price and something more like $8.99 for families. They had a chance to work on grabbing a big piece of the market.

 

[TMRJIJ]

And I would argue you're in the minority.. Not me. Can't wait to see the Watch sales numbers.. If they ever release them.

You must have missed all the comments about wanting iPad split screen functionality, Performance and battery life improvements in iOS 9, and OS X refinements.

 

[acmeplus]

Worst WWDC ever. I'm really surprised how Apple dropped the ball in this WWDC. They have had lack of content before, but at least the presentation was flowing correctly, not this time.

Worst part was the Apple Music presentation. They should definitely remove Eddy Cue from the stage.

 

[Rogifan]

So how does one transfer a playlist from Spotify to Apple Music?

 

[MH01]

i assume the cheers for apple music are coming from the Apple employees in the crowd

 

[Nausicaa]

I wouldn't say it all sucks. But a huge majority of it does. 80s and 90s certainly are MUCH better.

I'm not going to agree simply because there is TONS of music getting released every year that is really great, in all genres and styles. I would agree in the context of pop and top 40 though. I recently listened to No Doubt's debut album again for the first time in a long time, and I was struck by the musical variety and complexity on that album. Every song had character and clear influences but a unique sound. Compared to the stuff today, usually droning hip hop voices muttering nonsense over a "dirty" beat (wait for the drop!), the 90s were a golden age for popular music.

Here you go some arab guys doing stupid things with cars.

 

[killawat]

"at the end of the month" wtf? where is it? 8.4?

 

[ChrisCW11]

Looks like Apple dropped the ball hard on Apple TV. Not even a mention about it. Unless its one more one more thing.

It's no mystery that Apple will offer an app store, but not even mentioning a new developer platform for Apple TV means that I don't think we will see one until 2016. I can't see them offering a fall release and not getting developer's starting to poke around a beta platform in June.

Either Apple has to release a new product without locking in TV content distribution services, or fall another year behind the competition.

 

[cdm283813]

Disappointed no hints at new iPhones. Probably going to make a special event for that as well. Nothing earth shattering IMHO.

I wouldn't be surprised if the iPhone 6S plus receives the same level of multitasking as the iPad air 2. Would be silly to announce the feature today. It will be part of the iPhone 6S fall presentation.

 

[flux73]

Gotta admit, I'm not totally enamored with this WWDC. Seems like they scrambled to fill in the gap that Apple TV left when they decided to push it back. Apple Music may be great but they spent way too much time on it.

 

[redheeler]

iTunes on ANDORID?

Yes, hell just froze over.

 

[jouster]

By some margin, the most uninspiring keynote I've seen.

As most of Apple's senior management team would say: "It really is unbelievable!"
