I think it’s very Ironic that as the internet and streaming video is making it easier for us to share our knowledge (as Vannevar Bush imagined in his 1945 essay ‘as we may think.’, the universities of this country are pushing prices beyond the capabilities of the lower classes. Biggest problem this country faces is the price of college balanced against the prospects of a job.

Can you please explain what exact problem you’re encountering? That would help me troubleshoot, and I can relay the info back to the Stanford podcast team.

As per the above, though I am in the U.K. I thought what a great idea but it will not download into iTunes. Is it restricted to US only?

Wow, I have been waiting for this one. I was alerted by Prof Anderson (Berkeley, from the History 5 course http://webcast.berkeley.edu/course_details.php?seriesid=1906978513) that this was coming up.
What makes me wonder: why can’t one subscribe to the feed? Stanford on iTunes U has a couple of courses that act as podcast, like the Historical Jesus, by Tom Sheehan and Patrick Hunt’s lecture series on Hannibal, those are syndicated and treated in iTunes as podcasts.
However, quite a few like this one can only be obtained by active download.
