Thankyou.
Look like a business plan!!!!!

I have no more info than you do, but even then, it sounds like it would be so easy for a company worker to accidentally put something into the public folder, opening up the potential for all sorts of legal issues.
The obvious solution for dealing with sensitive data is to disable iCloud altogether on that computer, but then will there be an old-fashioned sync option available for those that want to get a document onto their iPad w/o putting it in the cloud?

I think Apple has learned a lot from their disastrous MobileMe roll out. My guess is they are releasing iCloud features in multiple steps.
Step 1: Sync Music
Step 2: Stream Music

If system administrators are stuck having to manually download OS images to every computer they administer, I don't think they'll be particularly happy.

Or you can just encrypt the data.

Yeah, I hadn't even thought of that. We have 15 Macs here in our office. Do we need to download a 4 gig file for each one?

I agree, but what about those in private enterprise or government that would want to use an iPad?
I hope that there is a very clear indication in the initial saving process of a document that their document will be stored online and making them accept this dialog box or choose another save location. I think this is the best bet for not only minimizing accidents, but also to make people who are otherwise uncomfortable with the idea of their stuff being online more comfortable with knowing that they are in the driver's seat.

I wonder how they're going to handle converting MobileMe email only sub-accounts. I guess they'll just get spun off into their own accounts.

250 features. As always.
There are lots of nice-looking features in Lion actually. I'm starting to really be bothered by the fact that Windows 7 is my primary OS now.

Mook?
A term coined by Douglas Rushkoff in an episode of PBS's "Frontline" entitled "The Merchants of Cool." Mooks are archetypal young males(teens-early 20s) who act like moronic boneheads. They are self centered simpletons who live a drunken frat-boy lifestyle(or are frat-boys). Examples can be found anytime someone watches "Jackass." Rushkoff claimed that the media glorifies this ideal and stifles natural self expression, however, some people might argue teenage boys have always acted like morons(its actually a long-standing stereotype). Nonetheless, standardized conformist dumbass-culture behind a veneer of exhuberance is a scary notion indeed.
I'm no mook (too old), but I'm not interested in 'da cloud' either, except maybe for backups.

I think Apple will catch blank files, but NOT necessarily catch the difference between a self-ripped file and a file downloaded from bittorrent.
E.g., Apple could you technology like Shazam to analyse if the song is the same as the tags.
Although, that's probably a bit more involved, so I don't think Steve's "few minutes" would make that happen.
I'm prwetty sure the MI demanded sufficient safeguards so that "stealing" isn't going to be too easy.
It's definitely going to be possible to fool iTunes.

Well, I'm looking down the feature list on the Lion home page at Apple. Let's see...
Gestures. Nope. No interest in buying a trackpad for the iMac.
Full-Screen Apps. Um...Whatever. Not a big sell for me.
Mission Control. Well...I don't use Dashboard or Expose very much now beyond the rare simple search. And I never use Spaces. And see above for Full-Screen Apps. So...meh.
App Store. Have it. Don't use it. It's not like I buy software every week. But, I guess it's the future, regardless.
Launchpad. A prettier, snazzier version of the Applications folder on the Dock? Ok, I guess. Very iOS.
Resume. I wasn't aware this was an issue, since I don't do software updates while working. But, sure. I guess.
Auto Save and Versions. Maybe. I can see where some people would like this.
Air Drop. Sounds cool. Handy. If it works between a Mac and an iPhone, that would be great.
Mail. Not excited about full-screen Mail. Hope full-screen can be turned-off.
So, up-front, I'm not seeing anything that would make have to be the first in my neighborhood to upgrade. And, yeah, the cloud is lost on me. Just not interested. Good thing the price is nice and low. If this had been a $100 upgrade, I'm pretty sure my iMac would remain at 10.6.

Checksum every song. That's but a few minutes to do your entire library.
Will they let you use songs which you didn't download from iTunes in the first place? (i.e. songs which you could have torrented or ripped off a friend's CD)
Doubt it.

So With it being App Store only, it looks like as a Leopard user I'd have to buy Snow Leopard while I still can and then be able to download it from that. Have they released any minimum system specs for it yet?
|
It'll be much easier if you just comply.

Of course, that was the point that Steve made with the $25 / year option.
It will allow you to exchange your self-ripped files with 256bit AAC non-DRM.
So, a simple checksum won't do, because you could have ripped it in all kinds of fashions.
It's gotta be some smart fingerprinting thing like Shazam.

Are you talking about Apple having an automated way to ferret out illict downloads from personal CD rips? I don't think it would be possible for them to devise a reliable scheme to do that.

Hmmm. Seems like that'd take longer than "minutes".

I can't believe they're not going to have a low-key boxed DVD option along with downloading. Some people don't have fast, reliable broadband yet.

I'm assuming all in this thread have yet to watch the Keynote? I thought it was one of the best Keynote's in recent years (or at least since I started watching about 4 years ago).
Very excited about the 10 new features that they showed for OS X Lion. I really like the look of mail, particularly how the conversations are easily separated now.
iOS to me, was the highlight of the show. How Safari is going to be multi-tabbed in iOS 5 as well as including a Reader is very cool.
I thought the iCloud service was also very useful as I do like to share my photos (particularly between iPad and iPhone). The idea that my photographs will be readily available across those two devices in particular, is exciting.

We're finally going to be able to search mail body text in iOS!! About freaking time! I'm looking forward to location-based reminders in iOS as well; that'll be fantastic. I'm pretty iffy on the file-storage side of the iCloud setup, though. I sure like being able to just drag 'n drop anything i want into my iDisk and have it available on my iPhone. I may end up moving over the drop-box full time (actually not sure why I haven't already).

I was thinking about checksumming too, but the problem is the way your track is encoded will change the checksum, and tracks that come from compilation albums might have different signatures too.

Yeah, which I know nothing about... Apple better hope this is pretty bulletproof or else they may be exposing their 18 million tracks to all you can download for $30/year.

I know. The whole thing seems a little bizarre - are Apple really going to allow the possibility of people uploading pirated tracks onto their servers? I mean, have Apple got so much spare cash knocking around that they want to give a lot of it to record companies when the lawsuits come flooding in?

So what happens when millions of apple users all try and download a 4 gig file at the exact same time?
Can I really pick up someones password locked iPhone and snap a picture of my junk with it?

For everyone wondering about iTunes Match and pirated music, let's try to remember one important fact: people who steal music are unlikely to pay $25 just to sync their devices. And if they did, it means Apple and the music industry have managed to get $25 from someone who they couldn't get $25 from before. This is free money for the record industry, they lose nothing, they only gain.
No one is gonna waste time making phoney music files with metadata on them just to pay $25 for the privilege to transform them into real music. It's easier to download it from a torrent site.

Watching the keynote now. Steve is really skinny, and his voice sounds different, like Geddy Lee or something.

What's this "record industry" entity and how can I join it? I mean, I don't recall having a contract with Apple about this iCloud thingy so I must be outside this "record industry" you speak of. Does this mean that those paying the $25 will take special care not to upload my shizz to Apple's servers or that Apple will take special care to make sure I get my $0.00001 royalty if they do?
This whole thing ain't going to wash. It'll end up being restricted to iTMS stuff only, or removed from the next incarnation of iCloud. Remember when iTunes (the app) could stream over the Internet to your friends?

This might be one of the few times uncle Doof is wrong.
Remember the rumors about Apple being in negotiations with the big labels. It's been a year or so.
I'm pretty sure there re bullet proof contracts, and the reason why it took so long was the big labels thinking it through a million times. This is NOT just an accident.

According to the keynote, it will only be available from the Mac App Store, not on DVD. I'm pretty confident that the whole App Store download and install process will still work the day after release and beyond.

I haven't been in negotiations with Apple or signed a contract allowing my intellectual property to touch their cloud servers. That was my point - the "music industry" isn't just the RIAA yet this new process seems to allow for any music to be uploaded to the cloud.
Thus, it's going to have to be restricted in some way or Apple are going to have to do a lot of "negotiating" with independent labels and artistes - probably in a courtroom.

On release of Lion, Apple will probably remove Snow Leopard from their sales outlets (like they do with every previous incarnation of everything).
So how does one access the App Store if you're coming from Tiger or Leopard, don't have SL and you've put a new HD in?
Makes no sense. They'll release on DVD, for sure.

As I understand it, NO music is uploaded to the cloud. Apple has all of the music already.

If you want all the benefits of iTunes in the Cloud for music you haven’t purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. It lets you store your entire collection, including music you’ve ripped from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. For just $24.99 a year.2
Here’s how it works: iTunes determines which songs in your collection are available in the iTunes Store. Any music with a match is automatically added to your iCloud library for you to listen to anytime, on any device. Since there are more than 18 million songs in the iTunes Store, most of your music is probably already in iCloud. All you have to upload is what iTunes can’t match. Which is much faster than starting from scratch. And all the music iTunes matches plays back at 256-Kbps iTunes Plus quality — even if your original copy was of lower quality.

So how does one access the App Store if you're coming from Tiger or Leopard, don't have SL and you've put a new HD in?
Makes no sense. They'll release on DVD, for sure.
I'll just trust Apple on this. They said no DVDs, so I'll take their word for it. That means they'd have to continue selling Snow Leopard on disc. I see no problem with that. Apple isn't stupid. I'm sure they've thought this through.

OK. Only the subset of your collection that isn't already available from iTunes gets uploaded. If you have a problem with that, I'm sure there will be a way to prevent it.

I know iCloud is going to be a success because of the negative reception it's getting here.

How, exactly? The stuff which gets uploaded is the stuff which Apple can't match, thus hasn't got a fingerprint for. So how can they tell when my shizz is being loaded onto their servers?
