That's a good set of lectures.
My girlfriend recently did several as she was learning about CS as a postgrad, and found them very useful.
They, and many more, are also available on 'iTunes university' from within the iTunes interface. The Stanford CS courses that are up are also well worth a look; there's a good Machine Learning course up there.
The only issue is that the videos often aren't properly edited for the Internet. They don't strip out the class administrative parts, and the lectures would go a lot better with a navigable text index to allow you skip to different parts of the video.
The Khan Academy is also worth a look as a similar project.
With a little more care and attention to editing and presenting for the web, this could have a big impact on education.
