I don't think they'll be happy. If the stream holds up all the live blogging is kinda pointless hits the nail on the head as to why.
- ugh 16y agoYou might just be right. Large parts of the tech press probably aren’t happy that they can now pay much more attention and do critical and profound write ups afterwards. They would much rather just transcribe every word Jobs says and frantically upload photos :-) (It probably costs the tech sites a lot of page views, so I can certainly understand why they wouldn’t be happy about it.)
- Zev 16y agoLarge parts of the tech press probably aren’t happy that they can now pay much more attention and do critical and profound write ups afterwards. They're journalists. Their job is to gather information. I'd be surprised if the only way a site like Ars Technica or TUAW could get information is by waiting for a stream from Apple. The point of videos is for everyone else who isn't a journalist and didn't get invited to a special event. Not to help journalists do their work.

- acqq 16y agoAvoiding the middle man in the event coverage is certainly the main reason for Apple to do the live stream. It's worth not having negative comments!
