> If I’m understanding this correctly, he is suggesting that Apple should put their fancy camera in a strategic location at every stadium and concert hall in the country/world

I don't think you understood correctly. He's talking about optimising the use of limited cameras.

> The “immersive experience” would be fun for 10 or 20 minutes and then people would want the different angles.

People pay money to attend events in person, so this doesn't appear to be true.

> You think people want to pay $3500 ...

That's about the same as flying to another country to watch the football world cup final in person. Once.

> to not be able to see better angles? To not be able to see replays?

You could watch replays on the big screens at the event. I'm sure user-selectable angles would be inevitable.

> Yeah, courtside seats are amazing; that doesn’t mean they are perfect.

Amazing sounds good enough to me!
