Hey, I was wondering if Apple is going to be broadcasting the WWDC keynote live on their website through their Quicktime page. If so when is it? I am really looking forward to the Tiger preivew and the new releases. I really hope they broadcast it.



Thanks

    If you go to their site http://www.apple.com/quicktime/whatson/appleevents/ they have the 2003 wwdc so they have done it before. Hopefully they will do it again.

    Apple is big on shooting it, then putting it up after.

    'Broadcast' normally normally refers to a live stream.



    I don't recall Apple ever doing this for a WWDC keynote. Can anyone recall exceptions?



    If recent history is any indeication, the keynote video will be available in the late afternoon or early evening via the quicktime website. For the first few days, a non-live stream is looped and it is impossible to fast forward or rewind. After the initial bandwidth crunch has subsided, they allow on demand streaming.

    WWDC 2003:



    It was live to Apple Stores.



    It was canned for everyone else after the Keynote was over.



    There was not a live *WEB* broadcast.



    For the first few hours (days?) the online broadcast was multicast streamed only.



    After that, it became on-demand streaming.



    Hope this puts an end to the argument. Probably not, but here's hoping.

    At the Apple Store, they were using a computer to show it...do you think that there's some secret address that allows you to see it in RT, like at the Apple Stores?
