That's why Apple is succeeding. People are moaning about how they cannot view the live stream of an Apple event on their Windows/Linux platform, like we're landing on the moon or something. Amazing.

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
When I view the page in FF24, it says "Live Streaming video requires Safari 4 or later on OS X v10.6 or later; Safari on iOS 4.2 or later." I'm just as surprised that it "requires Safari" which is just ... silly.
The iPod didn't take off until the release of the Windows version. I wonder if that lesson has been lost.

Google wants their own protocol to succeed, Mozilla wants a different video codec to succeed[1], Microsoft probably wants to own both. It's very easy to cache HLS, which makes distributing high definition to a large number of people much cheaper.

#39Ok so it's that time of the year again. I am on windows and have chrome, firefox, ie 11, VLC, flash. Is there any way for me to watch this stream? Heck will this work even if I get quicktime?

So for now I am assuming it's because quicktime on it's download page only says it…
From the page: > Live Streaming video requires Safari 4 or later on OS X v10.6 or later; Safari on iOS 4.2 or later.
