True, but while there's a qualitative difference between traditional university provided education and on-demand e-learning, there's also a striking monetary and commitment difference.

At a university, at least at a post-graduate level, you are probably going to be taught by a deep learning researcher passionate about the subject, with the added advantage of support if you struggle with some concepts.
