The stream worked fine for me until I went full screen. Then it wouldn't let me get out, there was no minimize button displayed. When I finally escaped my menu bar was gone when I was using Safari. Stupid coders.

>> I believe this Stream went out to as many as a Billion or more people World wide No, nowhere near that. Not even a minuscule fraction of that.

I believe this Stream went out to as many as a Billion or more people World wide at the same time and I'm also certain Apple didn't do this themselves in house. That is an absurd estimate. Apple missed an opportunity by underestimating demand. It happens, but I am sure that they are far more pissed off than anybody on this thread. Slacker

Nobody is perfect and expecting things to go perfectly is always going to lead to some disappointment. Clean, remember "it just works"? Apple spends lots and lots of money to polish that image, from great products and advertising to the best packaging in any industry. What are they doing running a two hour fractured, unintelligible broadcast to, as you say, billions? If they can't do it right, don't do it. It's better than looking idiotic. I know you think everything Apple is great, but come on, that broadcast was truly pathetic. They're a tech company... an iTunes streaming company. Jeez please don't ruin my afternoon.
