Which appears to be considerably larger than the "free" videos that the
company generously offers on their website:
http://www.vtc.com/products/Ubuntu-Certification-Tutorials.htm

My guess is that what you have downloaded is *not* "Open Source"
training videos, but instead have downloaded a pirated copy of the full
training course... which you can order from the company for USD $99.95.

I reckon your best option would be to delete the download and order a
valid copy from the company. Anything else is both unethical and
possibly illegal.
