I know this is supposed to be the last Apple one but why no live feed, with all the tech we have someone up north couldn't figure out how to sent a live feed over the internet? Heck, C-SPAN which probably has less viewers does it all the time.



Why do we always have to get it via text or wait until eve. to watch it in replay. I mean, really....2009 not 1995 with dial up.

    They want you to attend the conference, not watch it at home.

    The necessary server bandwidth is massive when everyone tries to watch at the same time.

    Also, this is Schiller's first solo keynote (with the exception of the one when Jobs was out for surgery,) maybe they want to edit before letting the whole world see it..

    I always have to wait several hours after the video is put up on Apple's website- there are too many people trying to watch it ASAP!



    This might be 2009, but I have internet from 2001.

    Well what about an unofficial keynote stream??

    I know some people out there are using their laptops at the keynote with webcams to get a live stream of some sort going.



    Well? Who is hosting and where can I find it?

    Dude, you ask every keynote, and every keynote, it does not exist.
