Nice. Where do you find all these videos?
To paraphrase Marc Faber: We're all doomed, but that doesn't mean that we can't make money in the process. Rabbi Lapin: "Let's make bricks!" Stephan Kinsella: "Say you and I both want to make a German chocolate cake."
Daniel Muffinburg: Nice. Where do you find all these videos?
I got them via the webmaster of the Danish site Liberator.dk ; http://liberator.dk/index.php/emne/foredragsserie-1
They were initially on Google Video and Megavideo, but in lower quality. I also fixed an audio issue on all the day-2 lectures, which contained a noticeable hum. I cut a few things here and there (one thing Hoppe mentioned about inflation and the interest rate, and I cut out one question in one of the lectures). And there were some other minor things to fix.
Awesome. What video editing software do you use? Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premier?
Sony Vegas Movie Studio
(the consumer version of Sony Vegas Pro; but it has loads of features and hardly any limitations that I've run into)
Thanks for this, I love watching these. I can even listen to the mp3's while I work :)
Awesome.
Daniel Muffinburg:Nice. Where do you find all these videos?
He paid good money for them too.
Nielsio, thanks again for posting these. #6 by Hoppe is exactly what I was looking for (a clear explanation of methodology). I can hardly wait to watch all of the others. I wonder if these will get posted under Mises Media.

Win on so many levels.
In the last video, Hoppe is asked about a moral justification for why currently unused items should not be available to everyone meaning when someone is not using a couch, why should it be forbidding for other people to make use of it. He responds by pointing out the absurdities it would lead to without giving any actual moral reason. What I thought of is that even when you are not actually making use of a couch, you are still "using" it in that it satisfies your need to be able to sit down on that couch whenever you want. The same with food you are not eating. The food is not unused, but rather the fact that it exists and is yours means its use for you is to satisfy your current desire to be able to eat in the future when you get hungry again.
Any thoughts?
LibertarianfromGermany:Any thoughts?
Well the obvious one is - it is your property and although it is not being currently "used" in a direct sense, the same could be said for "demand deposit" savings. (Full reserve). Essentially, if it's not being directly used - so what?
The more useful argument in this case, I think then is the reductio absurdum.
"You're not currently using your car? Cool. It's mine now." etc....

Yeah, I agree with that obviously, but I think the question was for a justification about why property should be permanent. What I'm saying is that when you don't currently use your property, you don't abandon in it so to speak but you still keep on using it in an indirect sense. Only if you stop using it in that indirect sense (meaning you give it away) will it be acceptable for anyone else to use it.

Yep. It's like Block's example about what constitutes abandonment (children rights, positive obligations, abandonment paper). i.e if you throw your jumper in the closet, never intending to use it again - you can hardly say you've abandoned it.
This is from the 2010 ASC which I found interesting - Use It or Lose It: Extensions to Lockean Homesteading Theory.

I think what constitutes practical abandonment (not just intentional) also has to do with the context. If there is plenty of land to go around then if you're leaving a piece of land barren for two years, then a next guy can still easily move to the next plot of never-before used land. But when land is very scarce and you're leaving a piece of land barren for two years when there are people who have capital and opportunity to make use of it, then I think your claim is quite diminished. I think in such a case if the previous owner is not willing to sell it then someone else may not lose his reputation if he forcibly takes it over (i.e. basically regards it as a state-of-nature again). The scarcity raises the price of the property whereas not selling it yet still doing nothing with it raises the possibility of losing it. Those two things combined would make things work in a voluntary society, I think.
Private contracting and private ratings (reputation) services are integral to all this.
The same principles and mechanisms would apply to parks versus development.

Thanks so much for putting this up, it was so annoying to reach the time limit watching those on megavideo.
"When the King is far the people are happy." Chinese proverb
For Alexander Zinoviev and the free market there is a shared delight:
"Where there are problems there is life."
I talked to Chad Perish and he says they've been busy but that he'll try to get the audio in the Media Archive and on iTunes by next week. And then they'll post about it on the blog.
I updated my Youtube channel today to make it conform with the new looks of my website.
It's still not in the Mises archive.
Anyway,
I set up a torrent so people can download all the videos. The format is 640x480 MP4 and should work on iPhone and other devices.
One issue this series has on Youtube is that it doesn't play totally fluently, in that it lags/twitches every 10 seconds or so. It's due to a problem with the codec/Youtube/who-knows-what. These MP4s don't have that and are therefore easier to watch in my opinion (a lot of people won't notice, but I do).
I also included three files from DiLorenzo that I link on my Austrian Economics page. The audio-problems that the Mises WMVs have are fixed in these.
Maybe some people could help seed? It's 9GB total.
