  2. Great presentation and you bring up some interesting questions (here and in class) regarding copyright and iTunes University and the like. I think iTunesU and Wikiversity etc. are all great for those that want to continue learning, but I don't think they take the place of an education in which you obtain that piece of paper with your degree.
