Question downloading dvd

Hello everybody,
Won"t it be nice for people outside US, having a speed internet connection, to be able to download the dvds, after payed it ?
I live in the west indies, and the shipping equal the price of a DVD, but I've got a speed connection for the web, so I could download two dvd for the price I pay for one with shipping.
Please think about this Mister Alvarez.
Thank you Syl from guadeloupe

Well, this would be problematic for Gnomon to do.

I know digital-tutors offers e-downloads on some of their merchandise, but they use a much lower quality compression for this lessons. They are able to provide e-downloads because their final product is normally on 2 cds. Gnomon's lectures cover 1-2 DVDs. It would take alot of bandwidth to pull that kind of service off, and if you take the general experience of downloading Alex's free tutorials into account, it is obvious that they would not be able to provide e-downloads without raising their prices signifigantly.

Thumbs up total training

Hello everybody,
with the new total training online training, perhaps the price of dvd for training will fall down a little bit.

If gnomon stay with dvd, the price will certainly go down in a few years. Perhaps we could see also VHS coming back for 10 euros ! I still have a vhs taperecorder. If gnomon want to reach people with less money, this could be a soluce.
