Note:

From time to time, we discover video and audio recordings of sermons, speeches, talks, etc. that are either free for the downloading, or can be obtained at relatively low cost. At the start of 2007, we decided to record any new findings here.

SpokenNetwork.com have a handy "Help and Frequently Asked Questions" section that may help bring you up to speed on downloading audio files, burning CDs and transferring files to a portable listening device like an Ipod. They have three videos online: one describes the download process; another is a guide to burning CDs.
