苹果也乌龙 iPhone6发布会变中文课

Apple Inc.’s highly anticipated iPhone 6 and iWatch announcement Tuesday was marred by live stream problems, including a Chinese interpreter and intermittent outages.

周二，中文同传和断网问题让万众瞩目的苹果iPhone6发布会的网络直播蒙羞。

Users unable to attend the event in California were infuriated by streaming issues when the video feed appeared on Apple’s website. The normally reliable stream played out of sync with the speakers onstage, froze up and completely cut out at certain points. When the stream did work, the voice of a Chinese translator was broadcast in lieu of the Apple presenters, infuriating Twitter users who have spent weeks speculating on what the announcement would unveil.

被苹果官网的视频直播问题惹恼了无法亲临加州现场的用户。平时可靠的直播系统在播出演讲时不同步，有定格和跳帧现象。当该系统恢复工作后，播出的声音并非来自演讲者，而是一名中文同声译员，这让那些为可能公布的新产品等了数周的Twitter用户愤怒不已。

The stream remained down through much of the important parts of the announcement, with Apple’s live blog providing much of the detail that CEO Tim Cook was trying to explain. The event was so anticipated that the #AppleLive Twitter conversation was streaming for hours before Cook actually took the stage. Soon after the cameras turned on, though, the hashtag had turned from anticipation to parody.
