Probably not the best way, but:

still seems to work after pushing for a while and after few VLC crashes.

If anyone can download a copy of the Steve Jobs 2006 Macworld
Keynote which
can be watched here:

Apparently, you cannot save it to hard disc--but maybe there is a
workaround? We would like to show it to the group at our meeting
this week.
But unfortunately Apple do not provide a downloadable version, only
the streamed version.
Which I found rather surprising when you consider Apple have the
best "downloadable" video distribution service out there in the form
of the iTunes Music (Media) Store ;)
How many people here would be prepared to pay US$1.99 (or AUD$3.39,
or what the local price) for a downloadable version of various
Apple Keynotes, just hours after the event itself.
Sure the quality from iTMS would be lower then the streamed
versions - I believe the streamed versions are now available in HD
while the standard format for iTMS is 320x240 pixels. Not the best
but acceptable.
Perhaps if we all wrote to Apple via their Feedback Form found at
<http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html> (which can also be
accessed from the "Provide Feedback" option under the iTunes menu
in iTunes itself) requesting they add the keynotes to the iTMS they
may actually do this.
I have just done so, setting the "Request Type" of "Request
Artist" and suggested that artist be "Steve Jobs" and stating that
many people on various mailing lists and web forum often enquire
about obtaining a downloadable version.
If YOU would be interested in getting a downloadable version of the
Apple Keynotes (this one or even future ones) then please take a
few minutes to use the Request Music feedback form and we may just
get what we want ;)
