The spoiler I saw is an image, but there could be some text. So avoid visiting the page once the stream is up.
Got a tip for us?

to clarify: this would be the location of the link to the quicktime stream. The actual URL to enter in your quicktime player or browser is a lot more complicated and frankly, impossible to guess.
hes just guessing on the link but there are always spoilers on the actual website
As it is now the witching hour in the uk, I think I may log on in the morning..... maybe just 5 mins more.....
very true... unless your Darren Brown... he could most defiantly guess it
i would completely agree with you... its not worth the risk at all
I have no clue how one could go through the day without accidentally seeing it on CNN. Just me?
I closed Firefox, and then came back later, and opened it, and to my dismay, my homepage was the default Apple homepage for Safari.
....I immediately hit the Macrumors bookmark link though. Don't think I saw anything TOO bad.

. Don't think I saw anything TOO bad.Simple, turn off the TV
or isolate yourself in a small dark room away from anyone who could spoil anything.No, seriously, I mean, what can be the reason? It's not as if every little detail isn't already written in every blog on Earth. And encoding a 1h stream (with only average quality, as it always is) doesn't take anywhere near this long. So...
That's why you should turn off images, and make your homepage about:blank.I closed Firefox, and then came back later, and opened it, and to my dismay, my homepage was the default Apple homepage for Safari.

my family's already warned.. it's the same thing every year
Tell me about it, I walked in from work and my Aunt started telling me something about it that she just saw on the news. Didn't give much away though. I wish Apple would hurry up!

To be fair, I think its a little more complicated then that. For a start, if there working with HD video that's quite a compression by it's self, and don't forget they have to edit and /top tail it a bit. Also i'm pretty sure they don't just encode one 'average' quality stream. I'm pretty sure there are multiple streams and it gives you the best quality one your net connection can handle
Not so sure about the quality comment. The streaming version is generally very average quality (and I have a 20Mb connection), whereas the iTunes Podcast version is substantially better.
Come on, TV stations can do that live.
Yes, you do need powerful equipment but that should be no problem for Apple.
