*Updated on 12/27/2017 with the latest access instructions.*
Today, the University of California at Berkeley has deleted 20,000 college lectures from its YouTube channel. Berkeley removed the videos because of a lawsuit brought by two students from another university under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
We copied all 20,000 and are making them permanently available for free via LBRY.
@ -14,13 +16,11 @@ The full catalog is over 4 TB and will be synced over the next several days.
### How to Access
Until LBRY launches to the public in the near future, the videos are only accessible to technical users via the command line.
Download and install the LBRY app from [here](https://lbry.io/get?auto=1) (Available on major Desktop platforms). Next, start the LBRY app ([trouble starting?](https://lbry.io/faq/startup-troubleshooting))and wait for the homepage to finish loading (the validating tiles will show actual content). Now, click [lbry://@UCBerkeley](https://open.lbry.io/%40UCBerkeley) to access the UCBerkeley channel, or simply type `@UCBerkeley` into the search bar on top and hit the Enter key. This channel contains all the entries we've synced so far. Each entry on the channel is the course video/audio claim page where the content can be streamed (and downloaded locally).
If you already have access to LBRY, go to [lbry://ucberkeley](lbry://ucberkeley) to see the full catalog.
For a complete listing in text format, see [lbry://ucberkeley](https://open.lbry.io/ucberkeley) or type `ucberkeley` into the search bar on top and hit the Enter key. Click `Download` and click `Open` to access the course listing.
If you want to be notified as soon as the videos are made public to everyone, [sign up here](https://lbry.io/get).
If you're command-line-capable but new to LBRY, [follow this guide](https://lbry.io/quickstart), then access [lbry://ucberkeley](lbry://ucberkeley).
