Spoiler Free link for iPod Event 2009?

All the links to the video that have been posted up to now are links to the video podcast and offer progressive downloading. There apparently is no link yet to a true video stream that likely offers better streaming performance.

I cannot watch the video for longer than half a minute without a hiccup occurring.
 
Yeah, I need a stream!! I only am on the first 20 seconds.

Please, if people are able to, provide a link for the stream when its up too. Thanks.
 
I can't get past the "It's only Rock 'N 'Roll but I like It" musical intro without it stopping because it hasn't buffered.
 
After the first 4MB, it starts to download extremely slow, showing that it will take about 3,000 hours to download, so it is unwatchable right now. It should keep downloading decently in a few minutes, hopefully.

It got up to 10 hours of downloading for me. Cancelled it. I don't think it is the podcast itself, but iTunes Servers probably crashed with everything going on with them today.
 
I'm getting a download speed around 24 kb/s. That usually isn't even enough to stream an audio file, let alone video...
 
I get to somebody (Won't name names, don't want to ruin it for anybody) walking in, everybody saying "Woooohh" and that person saying "thank...." and then it cuts off because it didn't buffer.

Same exact thing here. Waiting for an actual QuickTime movie, but usually that's the first thing up. What's up, Apple?

The fact that you say that one part is like a spoiler haha. Yes, mine cuts off there too. I don't want to wait 13 Hours and 22 minutes to download it. F'n stream it to me Apple!
 
It's the exact same with me, too. It might be a werid problem with the podcast being too new. I'm pretty sure that the iTunes service is fine otherwise.
 
Speed Download's completely weirding out lol..

Its downloading quick.....then slowing waaaaaay down, then going back up and then back down again.........

EDIT - its now going at 20kb/s :(

Once again, it's all because of the iTunes Servers. I would wait for a QuickTime link. I am going to watch some George Lopez, go to sleep and see it tomorrow. Peace.
 
Steady 600KB/s here with iGetter, maybe I was lucky?

Edit: ^ nicely done!

Total download time here should be about 25 mins. Not bad!

Enjoy the show when the Apple servers get around to showing you it :D
