2. Wow. Thanks.
I thought I already had every Chomsky speech ever recorded. Can't wait to get home so I can start downloading this stuff.

3. Thanks also.
I already have 4~5 CDs & 2DVDs of Noam Chomsky. But depending on what I end up downloading, I'll consider making a contribution of whatever amount I can handle, to Znet or something.

4. S L O W!!
I have a good DSL connection, but the 5MB file I picked for a trial is coming in at ~2KB/sec. That'll be over 40 minutes for download alone. I forgot the conversion, but 5MB wouldn't be all that many minutes of play-time. There's a lot there that probably couldn't be found elsewhere, but I think I'll continue to buy the ones I want. (There's NO "principle" involved in ripping off Chomsky; anarchist though he may be).

7. There's a very large number of files
that end us as: "File Not Found". They're near the beginning, and starts with the title: "Noam Chomsky - Welfare for the Rich". The site no longer there is "bravepage.com".

I imagine most of the rest will download okay, and I'm grateful for that resource. If they load slow, I can live with that. And the titles themselves are descriptive enough so I can search for them elsewhere if I want them.
