While the videos are available online, what are the odds you will actually watch all of them? Especially within one week?

I'd venture a guess that most of the benefit is derived from the fact that you get to focus for the entire week on taking all of this in, rather than fitting in the videos around your work/family life/etc. That, and the labs and other in-person events that won't be recorded.

You certainly don't get the chance to watch all the sessions while you're actually there due to the fact they all overlap. There's little advantage between those who did / didn't go to WWDC in respect to the sessions.

The access to engineers and networking with other developers etc is really the main reason for dropping 1500.

Oh for sure, I simply meant you get to focus your efforts on learning/networking/etc full-time for a week which is rare for most of us working folks.
