All those links took a while to add.
There's no better feeling in this world than being held captivated by an Apple event in stunning HD on Apple TV. Many of the innovations Apple revealed in this episode are truly mind-blowing and revolutionary.
Hopefully THIS is the one where they release the next iPhone's details...

Was that this version? This one is 1.98GB, the first version was 1.2. Anyhoo, downloading now and dumping the smaller file. Didn't buy that new laptop since they didn't make this video available in 5MP haha, but a 2MP res is better than SD. Strange that the smaller version is 640*360
The one I downloaded is the 1080p version with a 9257 kb/s bit rate for a total of 7.56 GB.
Ditto here.
One. Big. Mother.
Chewed through about 20GB of hard drive space with just three keynotes.
It was dumb of me to DL the 1080p version. I am only watching it on my 13" MBP. It didn't seem to make the picture any better.
Now that I think of it I'll dump it and go for the lower quality HD version.

Here is where Tim Cook comes back on stage to sum up the Keynote:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Gn4sXgZbBM&feature=player_detailpage#t=6614s
The following words might sound like a propaganda to some people...
"people choose to come to work at Apple and with Apple to do the best work of their lives… products that empower people to do great things…"
But when I saw Tim say these words:
"can fundamentally change the world… I can't think of a better reason to get up in the morning!!! "
his voice shook a bit, and it sounded • very personal, from the heart •, ala Creed… Then Tim seemed to have caught himself getting too "soft and intimate" and quickly ended it!!! But to me, that • personal • aspect revealed something that I've suspected about Apple, Steve Jobs and hopefully the "Apple Culture" in general:
They are not in it for the money, ego etc as their primary goal… And that's the secret of their success!
In All Things Digital 2012 Interview, Tim Cook said about Jobs something like this:
"he taught me that the journey is it's own reward"….
To me it looks like Tim Cook and Apple are living that Creed in their daily lives!!! Or at least I'd like to believe that… After replaying that exact spot
watching every expression on his face when he said:
"I can't think of a better reason to get up in the morning!!! "
several times, and even a few days later, I have not changed my mind! Tim Cook seemed to have bared his soul with those words!
As long as Apple thinks like that and not "Different", it'll be fine, and around for a long time, while the pundits opine, and people speculate about AAPL stock….

I usually get up in the morning because I have to take a leak. You can't get to the top of the pyramid until all the needs below are satisfied.
That's odd. Looks like the US gets the HD version first, perhaps Europe later (?). I do have other Apple keynotes in HD, so I am able to download them. But this morning I simply used the link from this article and downloaded a 2GB version. I'll search for this 7GB version tomorrow when I'm behind my desktop again.
Interesting to see this moving and in high-res, and to see just how barren and basic the new maps work. Such a enormous step back from the current Google Solution, and of course, no mention of the removal of Street View, but plenty on the pointless gimmick of Google Earth flyovers. The turn by turn looked alarmingly basic too - I can't imagine Waze, TomTom, or any other dedicated turn by turn company losing any sleep over it.

As SolipsismX mentioned, there are is a separate 1080p podcast area in addition to the HD and SD podcasts, at least in the US. I also downloaded them on the 12th so this is "old" news.

Does this 1080p version look interlaced to anybody else?
Does anybody know the music used in the MacBook Pro video? As is typical with Apple, it is fresh, a little funky, brilliant, and moving. I really like the uptempo electronic track.
