You can still distribute them, they aren't illegal. It's just Berkeley that can't, because of their mandate as a public entity. If Berkeley could continue distribute the files without compliance there simply would be no way t

There's just no way salaries can keep up with social changes. Housing prices have doubled in the last 10 years. Salaries are already high and hamburgers expensive in Sweden. A 19 year old in Sweden would make $14/hour at 7-11. Tha

I think in Sweden, were this has been changing in big cities in recent years, it's mostly because you can't support yourself in many areas on a 7-11 salary anymore. If you can't get an apartment you can't stay in the ar

The one at way out west might have been without human ordering [0]. But since you still need humans to make and compile the food it might not make sense to have automated serving. And since you have people serving they might as well take or

Oh, I don't think it will work in the US (at least not initially). Americans are accustomed to a certain level of service, in part because of cheap labor. I remember standing behind an American family at McDonald's and their order

This thread is getting old, so I'll respond collectively to the comments since my last comment. They produced videos that can't be distributed. This isn't much different from say having an electronics project that isn't

"You can't search lectures you attend in person either, yet that format has endured for quite some time." There weren't really an alternative, so whether the format has endured or not isn't really relevant. Many oth

Many things are valuable. The problem here is that the school don't want to, or can't, pay the full price that it costs to legally distribute the videos. Maybe it's actually fair that the people who want the videos contribute

I have no idea what you are talking about. Exposing the data, that is already there, is what gives people the choice how to learn. If you just have a blob of video there's no practical way to e.g. search for something.

I would still say it's small compared to the size of the activity. But let's not argue that and take another approach. Someone below said that they assessed it would cost (at least) $1,000,000. There are 20,000 lectures so that&#x

"I'm not sure holding back the progress of an entire society just to not disadvantage a subset of it is as reasonable as you seem to think." I think that's a hard argument to make when Encarta 95 was more advanced than t

"how will they make their content easy enough to grasp for the guy with an IQ of 60? He's disabled too, after all..." Not only is it false equivalence, it's also addressed in the first (and second) paragraph in the lette
