Apple to Offer Live Video Stream of Today's Media Event

Tuesday October 22, 2013 4:39 am PDT by Eric Slivka
A number of readers are reporting that the "Apple Events" channel has returned to their Apple TVs, revealing that Apple will indeed be offering a live video stream of today's media event. Apple has offered live streams of several recent events, but did not do so for last month's iPhone event.

Apple should also be making the stream available through its website, but the announcement and page for the stream have yet to go live.

Apple's keynote kicks off at 10:00 AM Pacific Time, and MacRumors will have full coverage of the event.

Update: Apple's website has now been updated with the live stream, and the company's online store has gone down as usual ahead of the event.

As with previous events, the stream through Apple's website requires a minimum of Safari 4 on OS X 10.6 or Safari on iOS 4.2.

Save it for the really big events.

iPad Mini,
iPad 5,
Macbook Pro's,
Mac Mini,
Mac Pro,
Mavericks,
Apple TV.

Versus an event for an "S" model and unashamedly plastic iPhone this one is huge.

I wish Apple would leave this channel up all th time. Sometimes it's nice to go back and watch older events.


you can subscribe to the apple event podcasts and watch the videos as many times as you like :)

This is what the town hall looks like:

When I was at university, we had lecture halls smaller than that - they had 3 ceiling mounted cameras pointing at the stage, with a remote edit suite. There's no real reason why Apple can't do the same. Blaming it on the auditorium size is a bit silly of them.


maybe that location has poor connectivity to their internet infrastructure, which makes a life stream more challenging.
