He just finished his lifelong project of downloading all the porn on the internet, but then someone posted something new and he had to stay home and get that one too.

I think it's mostly due to money. Yes Apple has a ton of money to spend, but they also don't like to be wasteful. With so many other more effective ways to reach people, trade shows just don't make as much sense anymore.

I think the simple answer is that consumers were waiting to purchase Apple products until the trade show, and that the trade show occurred after the holidays. Apple needs to increase sales during the holidays.

I think that Apple wants to focus more on its WWDC. There have been less "oohs" and "aahs" lately at these conferences, so a once-a-year WWDC would be able to have bigger announcements and it wouldn't force Apple to release new products or announce them before they're 100% ready.

I think also maybe Apple wants to show that Steve Jobs isn't the man holding up Apple Inc anymore. Apple has changed and is in a much better place than they used to be, they don't need Steve Jobs to do everything.
