Does anyone know which livestream is better, the YouTube one or the one linked from spacex.com?
I just got some buffering on the SpaceX stream, and i'm pretty sure it wasn't anything my end. These in-house streams tend to go down under heavy load, youtube streaming doesn't.

Seems like they are spending a lot more effort on this webcast than usual!
The little "timeline" graphic is the most "viewer friendly" thing SpaceX has ever done...and brilliant.

Love this timeline at the bottom of the screen! Did they have this before?
Was present during CRS - 7.

I'm wondering if that landing wind limit is a typo...

Are the song credits a new thing?
Yes it is new and I am glad for it! Still haven't found all music from previous launches..

Not a fan of the blocked screen. We've lost our view.

The webcast is really dumbed down compared to previous ones. They seem to be aiming for a different audience today.

I like the webcast, and you can tell they put a lot of info into it. It seems weird that they will be cutting over so late into the countdown though. If there were a hold or abort would they cut into the prerecorded stuff to tell us? (Hypothetically... still go).

I think it is a little cynical to call it "dumbed down". Before it was very stripped down, which appealed to the 0.1% (us). I do not think it is a bad thing that they do a better job informing the interested public that might be watching. Although, I wish it started a little earlier and went to the traditional type broadcast at T-10 at a minimum

I think this will be more like what their crewed launches will be like but I don't think they will do this for all of them.

Yeah, I would prefer launch radio.. much more exciting to here the chatter and listen to the go/nogo call-outs..

Is there a rocket involved in all of this somewhere? They even missed the retract.

Apparently poll was at T -38:00 before even prop load? I'm not sure I heard that right.

Seems way too routine for a rocket launch. Let alone a RTF launch. Pretty confident it appears.
