One of the frustrating issues with our most famous USMLE educational company, Kaplan Medical, is the unavailability of direct Legal download of their awesome Video lectures for Step 1 preparation that would perfectly complement their Lecture notes.

Kaplan insist to give those DVDs only to their course subscribers and does not provide them as Internet download in their website or any other online vender.

Let's start a thread to know your opinion about this and let's put a poll to see if you are willing to pay should such a legal download became available.

Kaplan listened to us and now they provide live streaming of their videos to their online subscribers

The shear memory size of these videos might be a hurdle for Internet download.
The total size of Step 1 Videos only may amount to over 100 GB!

So I think the suggestion should be to ask them to sell us the DVDs with the lecture notes in one package

They can sell it on their website or any online vender such as Amazon
