Udacity is a great place to learn computer-science related topics. Sometimes the quizzes get in the way, however, and you don't want the playlist to pause every time. Here's the link to get around that -

As you can see it's perfectly legal and they're cool enough to provide it to everyone.
Let's look at how to download, and which files are necessary:
Downloads are separated into Units, Problem Sets, Office Hours and Subtitles. For an example of what I mean, check out the great Computer Science If you are only looking for the main part of the course, only page here: https://www.udacity.com/wiki/cs101/downloads#units
If you are only looking for the pain part of the course - the video series, then only download the Units. Unfortunately, as far as I know, you have to download the Units one by one, of which for the CS101 course, for example, there are 11.
[As of writing, I did look for a complete DL from PirateBay and Kickass torrents, but none are available for the term "Udacity."]
If you have downloaded all the Units, then that is great for a general overview. In CS101, I only want the overview, because I am learning Ruby on Rails, not Python. However the CS concepts are similar, so I watch them anyway for the main points.
The Problem sets are like homework. Haven't yet checked out "Office Hours," but if you have, please mention what they are in the comments! I'm guessing it's just Q&A of popular questions from Udacity students.
If you want to take the courses with quizzes etc., just head over to Udacity!
