The translation voiceover is pretty distracting.

Not sure what Apple is trying to do.

Does anyone know whose network is delivering the streams? Is it Akamai?

Looks like iOS devices are being sent to a different stream. Viewing is perfect so far on my iPhone.

First no video, then constant mixing between the TV Truck schedule, a video of the crowd, a video of the presentation screen showing the apple logo, a message showing apple copyright. Refreshed a few times, got 'access denied to server' page a few times. Then got video with Chinese translations talking over the presenter. Then it suddenly stopped, I pressed 'resume' to get the TV truck schedule again. On an iPad.

It's not only the live stream which doesn't work, it's Apple's website too with a constant "Access Denied".

Little onions love to disco. With Chinese translations. And the TV Truck. Maybe they have an augmented reality product coming? Bringing back the rainbow logo? This is terrible.

OUCH! This is on a MacBook Pro running Safari: Access Denied You don't have permission to access " http://www.apple.com/" on this server. Reference #18.342f0660.1410282543.baf7bd

Server quirk.

Yay! The Chinese translation has stopped!! It took only 26 minutes to achieve this.

I hope someone gets fired for these goofs. I expected better from Apple.

I'm watching it using VLC. Media > Open Network Stream... > Paste this link: http://p.events-delivery.apple.com.edgesuite.net/14pijnadfpv...

me too. It drops out every now and again.. I close VLC and re-do the whole thing and it comes good again.
