To me, says "Available shortly". http://i.imgur.com/CbjlY.png

But thanks for the link.

EDIT: As other's have pointed out, you need to be using Safari. I can confirm I can watch it when I open it up there.

make sure you're using Safari

This. Won't show up on Chrome or other browsers. Historically true initially.

Yeah, I can confirm this works on Mac Safari despite having given me the "unavailable" message in Chrome.

Still doesn't work on Windows. It does on iOS, though.

Safari on PC doesn't seem to work.

Actually I fired this up in firefox 13 on osx and it started streaming. So apparently safari or firefox (at least 13).

Wasn't expecting that to be honest.

Just view the source of the webpage. Links to the .mov file are there for Safari, iPhone, iPad and Windows. Search for "_350".

Sigh... Quicktime. As a Linux user, I can't use it. Just use HTML5 Video or make Quicktime cross-platform Apple...

It'll show up here too http://www.youtube.com/user/Apple/videos

That or give me 30-40 minutes to get it and convert it (its 2.18g O.O)

Side question: does anyone know why Apple uses edgesuite.net for these things? Is that an internal name, a third-party corp. managing their video distribution, or something else?

It's part of Akamai AFAIK.

Anyone got the link to the HTTP live streaming URL? It's watchable in VLC but I don't have a Mac handy to circumvent the browser sniffing.. It's possible to get to the URL via the inspector I think.

EDIT: Assuming this keynote uses the same technology the previous keynotes have been using, of course.

http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/jun/126pihbedvcoihbefvbhj... works in iTunes for Windows.

Great this link works on Ubuntu using VLC.

If you view source of the webpage, you will see links for the iPad and iPhone as well. Search for "_350".

Alas, getting actual links to video is not always so easy.

Thank you Adobe, Brightcove and others for making video such a PITA.

Does anyone know why Apple doesn't offer their keynotes in Youtube anymore? I missed the days when I can view their keynotes in 720p.

User Agent Switcher on Firefox works for me.
