Is this worth it for hobby historians?
Also, can I get it for free from a torrent tracker, video and all? I only saw old audio torrents.
If any of you use the website, tell us how good it is, and if you'd recommend it.

Keep in mind I am a poor man from a potato country.

Oh, and by the way I am talking about thegreatcoursesplus.com
It says it in the image, and it gets shilled on a lot of scientific Youtube channels, but just in case someone missed it.

I used the great courses for philosophy, game theory, and economics. Recommended.

I think there are some video torrents out there, the audio are just more prevalent because they're smaller and the actual content works perfectly with just audio for ~90% of courses.

I recommended them on the basis that they're often better than, say, a podcast on a corresponding subject. Their written and presented by legitimately accomplished professors. Obviously, as with any college course, the quality can vary slightly between lecturers but on the whole they're outstanding routes into a subject.

I personally recommend Kenneth Harl's courses for in-depth history ones.

Do they update often with new stuff?
As in, at least several history related courses per year?

>>2756857
They have a huge amount of courses. It takes a long time to burn through each one, and I concur with >>2756103 to get any of the Kenneth Harl courses. In order of preference of his courses:
Alexander the Great and the Macedonian Empire > The World of Byzantium > Rome and the Barbarians > The Era of the Crusades

Some of my favorite topics right there. Is there any earlier stuff, Mesopotamia or even pre-historical?
