  • Quote: Originally posted by FallenFromTheTree Those curtains are telling me that this presentation might have something to do with Video Podcasts and iTunes Videos, but I wouldn't rule out something for the home theater at all. Podcasts are …
  • Quote: Originally posted by hdcool i don't think it will be current hardware upgrades.... the target audience for these stunts is too wide.. jobs want them to have a jawdropping reaction like "woah, apple is good.. look what they invented now.. n…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Programmer How about an Apple Projector in an iPod? Who is going to watch video on a dinky little screen, so instead everyone will be projecting onto the nearest wall as they walk along. Of course there will no doubt…
  • Quote: Originally posted by mello It would have been nice if I had purchased that stock tomorrow morning instead of today. You know, that's true 50% of the time... But a word of advice - NEVER buy right before earnings or a major announce…
  • Quote: Originally posted by JeffDM Would it work? I haven't kept track, but last I looked, it seemed that the only two major computer makers making decent profits were Dell and Apple, the rest were in trouble. To make it worth cutting margins, …
  • Quote: Originally posted by webmail I don't mean to be a jerk? But why IN THE HELL would you buy Apple stock? Anybody who spent 2 minutes learning how to invest would know better. Since my brain wants to explode I'll just tell you the stupid vers…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Silverlode The market is psycho. No, the market has been critical of Apple for a long time (and rightfully so, I might add) for not lowering their margins and using some of those profits to drive revenues. With…
  • Quote: Originally posted by geekdreams BTW, if Apple plans to SELL music videos through the iTMS (which could happen as soon as this week), the music industry should be happy just to be making money off something that was previously distributed f…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Programmer [B]I think you're proving onlooker's point without realizing it. Music is small compared to video (especially HD video) -- very small. And Apple alone is pushing out huge volumes. Music is roughly 1.5 MB/…
  • Quote: Originally posted by midwinter Neither one of y'all are having the same conversation. No shit. He's still stuck on the idea that the world's bandwidth got stuck in 1996. Apple already shoves 10TB per day out of iTMS. That doesn't i…
  • Quote: Originally posted by onlooker You say it clearly is, I say nay. You can't compare torrenting to direct downloading no matter how you look at it. There is going to be a huge difference. The size if the audience Apple would be catering too i…
  • Quote: Originally posted by midwinter It isn't. Sure it is. Movie download services already exist. CinemaNow and MovieLink are both services that the studios, along with companies like MS have launched. CinemaNow has been out for 3-4 years…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Elixir as far as movies go how much space do they really need? if you think about it not many movies have all that many special features to fill that much space. the capacity of HD-DVD is more than enough. N…
  • Quote: Originally posted by icfireball You Fools. NONE of these stupid video iPod designs will EVER work. Guess what people: some people ARN'T left handed. All of these designs have the scroll wheel to the right. And Apple can't have a sett…
  • Quote: Originally posted by PB Ooops, I forgot about that. As a shareholder, my interest in next Tues is rather different than that of most around here... ;-)
  • Quote: Originally posted by PB This is a good idea, but now we talk about the possibility of a high end Power Mac with two 970MP chips in it (for a total of four processing cores). Although this would not warrant a special event (unless it is com…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Aries 1B Would a Video iPod dilute the market/take attention away from the Audio iPod? I can't see them releasing a world-changer until the last world changer is sucked dry. Nah, totally different market. People bu…
  • Quote: Originally posted by rongold It would be fast enough if the content already resided in the Airport Express device. Maybe it is more like the Airport Extreme only with a hard drive. If you wanted something from this device, then it would …
  • Quote: Originally posted by onlooker You don't? How many people use Bit-torrent vs. iTunes? How many people even know what torrenting is? Have you ever seen a commercial on TV about getting your stuff through torrents? I don't think there is even…
