This website is run by VOLUNTEERS who donate their time and often money to buy and digitize the courses. None of the FSI courses are in digital format to start with -- they are books and tapes. Kind volunteers have scanned the books (hundreds and hundreds of pages) and recorded the audio from the tapes to a digital format to post the courses on the website. It's not as if some person HAS all these files and is keeping them from us.
Furthermore, the Japanese course was never created by FSI, though FSI does use a third-party Japanese course. So far it is unclear whether this course is in the public domain. If it is, it would be legal to digitize and post it here. If it isn't, it wouldn't be legal. Hope that clears things up, Al |
