Here are some things that can be had for the price of admission to the internet:
Coursera:
+Kierkegaard on Irony
+Interactive Python Programs (simple graphical games)
+General Game Players
+Compilers
+Programming languages (really about functional programming)
+Algorithms (Bob Sedgewick!)
And much more!
ITunes:
+All of Bert Dreyfus on Heidegger and the other existentialists.
+A History of Electronic Music podcast
+Yale's basic Game Theory, intro to New Testament, Evolution ecology and behavior course.
+MITs biology course by Weinberg and Lander
+lots of other great things.
Others:
+A lot of out of copyright books, including most of the notable ancient philosophers. Still looking for a free Heraclitus - if you spot one, let me know.
+Hegel explicated by J Bernstein at Bernsteintapes.com.
Open source software:
+MythTV - just recently got the beta client for Android and its pretty cool to stream to a handy device - although I'm wishing we had a Nexus 7 instead of an iPad. Will try Torc on our iDevices soon.
+Python, Numpy, Scipy
+Java, Android SDK
+
And of course, blogs. Anyone who has time is immeasurably richer than they were twenty years ago.
