It’s a brand new year and you know what that means, it’s time for New Media Manitoba’s annual trip to the Macworld Expo in San Fransisco!
Kevin Hnatiuk goes over the key announcements at this morning’s keynote address by Phil Schiller including the new iLife ‘09, iWork ‘09 and the new 17″ Macbook!
Keep it plugged in to newmediamanitoba.tv over the next few weeks for all the good stuff that we found at Macworld 2009!

Kevin,
Great synopsis. Looking forward to more from you this week. I’ve already ordered iWork ‘09 and will pre-order iLife today. Thanks.

It was not mentioned in your video but Macworld is saying that as part of the switch to DRM-free, Apple is adopting a three-tiered pricing structure for iTunes music with tracks that will cost 69 cents, 99 cents, or $1.29. You can also apparently update your existing iTunes music for 30 cents per song

Good points guys.
iWork looked awesome. I’m actually excited about getting into Keynote and Pages again.
Good mention regarding the iTunes pricing structure Lonnie. I seem to recall that they had an option to upgrade ALL your music to DRM free in one swoop? I’ve bought probably a dozen or so albums off the iTunes store. It’ll be interesting to see how much extra it ends up costing me if I want to go that route.
