I'm pretty annoyed, I was planning on using a bunch of MITOCW video series to level up some on some computer science and information theory this summer and I hadn't even gotten through the first lecture of the first series on my list (6.001 with Sussman from 1986, classic and awesome) when this stopped me in my tracks.
I've been waiting patiently hoping it comes back, but at this point I feel like I'm going to have to use archive.org or download directly from them.
I was slowly warming up to the idea of paying for Red for commercial-less music and maybe checking out some other paid content, but this has been a bucket of cold water on that notion.
- dmart 8y agoI'm in a similar spot - you can also stream the MP4s from archive.org as a workaround (they're usually linked on the lecture's OCW page.)
- cityhomesteader 8y agoI know this has been posted before but youtube-dl is a godsend when it comes to archiving content. Considering how quickly youtube is taking down educational channels, it's prudent to create a backup just in case.
- DrJaws 8y agowhich other educational channels have youtube shut down?
- JackCh 8y agoThe 1986 6.001 videos are available here: https://archive.org/details/MIT_Structure_of_Computer_Programs_1986 https://archive.org/details/MIT_Structure_of_Computer_Progra...
- silentguy 8y agoYou can download videos from MIT OCW website here : https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm You can not stream videos from the website though as streaming links are from youtube.
