This, quite frankly, is flat-out amazing IMO. Remember those cr@ppy Phoenix University ads? MIT just outdid them........only it's far better. Over 1500 of MIT's courses are now available online:

.........for
FREE.
Ivy League education for
free. Now, in all honesty, all you pay for is the paper.
EDIT:
Easy way to leech it:

Wow...this is really amazing.
I now have even more respect for MIT. Have you tried to leach this Jew? I wonder how many gigs it would be to rip the whole site.

2.5gb for 1/2 way. It runs about 200-300mb per course. That's with all the pdf's, etc. Honestly, you could easily cram it all in for under 10gb. Definitely worth it in my opinion.

Yeah, I had already downloaded almost 5 gigs of engineering textbooks, but this is for everything.
Lol, I'm creaming myself over downloading schoolbooks. When in school, all I could think about was downloading a game portraying abnormally large t!ts and swords (FAKK2).

Sh!t, now that I think about it, I should upload the blueprints of Air Force One that I have.
I have them purely for educational purposes.
