Like you imply, the package could become huge. I definitely applaud the
idea of making the videos available for easy offline deployment.
Bandwidth is a commodity in some areas and making them readily and
easily deployable (whether packages or archives) would make life easier
for freedom toasters, mirrors and the like.
