Apple Event on September 12th


Recommended Posts

What do you think the chances are of a new version of iTunes released today to coincide with the addition of movies? iTunes 7 or 6.5 perhaps?

On the one hand, the addition of movies isn't much different from the TV shows already available, but on the other hand, assuming a new video-enabled AirPort is launched, a new version of iTunes might be needed to use it. A check box "Look for remote Televisions connected to Video AirPort"

Ok, if you could somehow hook your TV up to the video Airport and then stream movies from iTunes to your TV...that would rock.

But I doubt it'll happen.

\can't get hopes up too high

That would rock my world! lol

...yeah, I'm sad like that. :(

There have been several reports now about a video-enabled AirPort base station... It's relatively likely to happen :)

Yeah, but would it allow you to hook up to a TV rather than another computer? And if so, would you be able to choose the video to play from the TV instead of from the computer you're streaming from?

Apple Showtime: The Entire Event Leaked?

Let's just say I have been informed by a little reliable birdy about Tommorow's event. The line-up will follow this similar structure:

Welcoming of Media Members

Discussion on iTunes software, iTMS integration into iTunes, and iTMS

sales and facts.

Announcement of iTunes version 7.0

Announces better search feature for Music Store

Announces Movie Store. Available Immediately will be movies from

Disney and Pixar, among other studios.

New iPod Nano Announcement (nice brushed casing, while it will have

same features as first gen, only a longer battery life)

New iPod Announcement (Widescreen, Bluetooth, and featuring virtual

touchwheel. Does not include Wi-Fi, or any other protocols)

One More Thing....

TubePort. A $99 2-piece set that includes a dongle that connects via USB to your mac, and another dongle that connects via included HD cables or regular Component cables to your TV. The movie is accessed on your Mac via an iDisk-like storage component hosted by Apple.

Jobs will then explain the pricing structure of the Movie Store.

Movies wil be available as either a smaller iPod-format (which will

cost $9.99 per movie), or as a larger, streamed movie to be streamed

to your TV via TubePort. This cost $14.99 per movie. To purchase an

iPod-formatted movie and a streamed version of the same movie, it will

cost you $19.99.

Hope this is not the case. Way too expensive.

There is no incentive to buy an iTunes movie at $15 when I can buy the DVD for the same price. I can then rip the DVD to my iPod, my PC, anywhere I want. Plus I get all the bonus features and extras not available on the iTunes version.

It should not cost more than $9.99, and the movie should be burnable to DVD.

    • Happens to the best of us, bro. 😛 
    • Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Why does this kind of tactic not surprise me?
    • They used AI based TOOLS to convert the JavaScript engine (the main rendering engine is still C++) and it was not fully automated but was human reviewed. Other subsystems will be looked into to also be converted to Rust in the future. I have no problem with any of that.
