The videos are hosted on Dropbox. Dropbox disabled the videos because there has been too much public traffic.

Hosting publicly accesible videos on dropbox is not the best strategy.

Unless you have a pro account there is a 20 gig/day bandwidth limit. With pro it's 200 gigs.

ugh can't wait till it comes back up. When it does, I'll be sure to lose many hours of my life to this :)

Ah sorry, we were blocked by Dropbox! We weren't expecting this much traffic and we're moving our videos over to AWS soon. We're going to use Box as a quick fix in the meantime.

This videos on Box don't work very well unfortunately: I can't pause and resume a video. Every time I miss any information I have to reload the page and start from the beginning of the vid....

Otherwise, great and I like the one video I watched. Thanks.
