Hey Seanwhe,
Thanks for the reply. I agree with you that there is little business reason not to allow other sites to embed their videos since the videos are already available for free on Youtube and by allowing other sites to promote them it should do nothing to increase their business.
With this being said I think that this concept of putting out good quality free content in order to promote your products is pretty new with the internet, so some are still caught up in the old ways of doing things and don't really understand this new paradigm yet.
To be honest with you I am not sure if it is legal or not to take the videos now that they have the embed feature disabled but since I am assuming they don't want people to since they have disabled it, I think we should respect their wishes.
I really appreciate your offer however of looking for some other videos that we can replace theirs with for the options course however as this is exactly the type of help that we need in order to make this site the best learning resource for everyone. If I can do anything to help you out with that please let me know.
Best Regards,
Dave
