Apple posts Macworld 2009 keynote stream

Apple has already posted a streaming version of company senior VP Phil Schiller's Macworld 2009 keynote speech, recapping the company's final presentation at the annual trade show.

The stream (note: direct QuickTime link) presents the full hour-and-a-half keynote, including a concluding performance by musician Tony Bennett.

At the event, Apple introduced a new version of iLife with key updates to GarageBand, iMovie and iPhoto; it also unveiled both iWork '09 and iWork.com, establishing the first web component to its productivity suite.

The company also introduced a new 17-inch MacBook Pro that uses the same unibody construction as 13- and 15-inch Apple notebooks but with a newly designed 8-hour battery and a dramatically improved display.

Finally, Apple has also revealed that it will remove DRM from virtually all music on iTunes by the end of March while increasing audio quality. In return, pricing for songs will vary depending what labels hope to charge Apple.

iPhone 3G owners can now also download music and podcasts directly over the cellular network instead of waiting to reach a Wi-Fi network.

I was going to post this, but I knew AI would ignore my post and submit their own link to it. So I didn't bother.

It works! The last couple presentations streamed for me the same night, though this time, I get an occasional glitch in the form of frame jitter and static frames. Even then, it's pretty good quality for streaming. In the past, I had to wait a few days for it to work.

If you try to manually drag the QuickTime windoe bigger it will crash. So cmd + F it is.

That doesn't work for me. It's in a window of Safari rather than a separate Quicktime Window.

Edit: I got it to work some other way. I can't full screen and use something on another screen, but dragging the window larger did work for me.

I like Phil's genuine sense of humility, gratefulness, and pride in Apple at the beginning.
