Sorry, that's fixed now. I accidentally had it cutting off at midnight UTC. I just pushed expiration out by another day (and it's now judged by Pacific time, and the page says that explicitly for good measure).
Not right now, but only because the coupon code was removed a while back for Reasons. I need to re-add that. If you like, free to email support@ in a few months to ask whether it's done.
Very nice of you to fix this; is this a regular thing you do (freeing one video) ?
ps: as usual, your video (compression) was a joy to watch, you should be a Khan Academy partner, or host a university or be a mars overlord. Something like that
The code to make screencasts free has been in for a while, but I rarely used it with the computation series because most of them didn't make sense in isolation. These new ones do make sense alone, so I'll probably do this more.
I don't work with distributors at all because they tend to (a) want some level of control over content and/or the legal right to modify and reuse it, (b) offer unfavorable royalty rates, and (c) have mixed quality levels between the works they host. I like that DAS is a comparatively small body of work that people know by name and trust to be good.
I highly recommend Destroy All Software if you're looking for resources for going from a beginner/intermediate level of coding ability to a more advanced level. Much of the material is organized around MVC web development and especially TDD, but there's a wide variety of transferable skills to be gained.
