These are fun. Just the right amount of silly mixed in with breathtaking graphics and Hawking's commentary. Thanks!
This is really great. What would make it better is if there wasn't a huge watermark, and there were subtitles. In education especially I think it'd help a lot to put text to Steven's voice.

I think immersion is very effective, and so far the modern effects are delivering well.

Subititles have been added. To activate them click the CC button in the bottom of the player.
Excellent. There is a delay between when subs first show and the first word is spoken in a line, but I know its tedious work by itself. Great job on this guys.
Subtitles are on their way. We should have them up in a few hours. Unfortunately, we need to watermark our content outside the paywall. I do agree the watermark could probably be a bit smaller, we'll try and take that into account in future releases.

Well...so much for that. Pizza anyone?

Hey UncleEntity,

We're hosting the videos on Vimeo and we have a few whitelisted domains but we're not allowing the video to be embedded offsite. That is the only restriction we placed on these videos. Otherwise, the videos should be globally available. Let me know if you're still having trouble (chris@curiositystream.com) and I'll send you a free account to watch the videos directly on our own platform.

Seeing the same here, there doesn't seem to be any links to direct the user straight to the Vimeo page.. I'm trying to access from Australia btw

It worked for me after disabling PrivacyBadger
it worked for me when I authorized cookies in Privacy Badger for this domain : cdn.embedly.com
"for free" means that I can watch it at no cost, or are you releasing it with a free license as well (such as CC-BY-SA)?
We're releasing these outside the paywall available to watch at no cost until Friday, March 23rd. I'm pretty sure there's no creative commons license attached, so the intended use is streaming on our domain which would preclude downloading or embeding on a different domain.

I'll try and have some copyright terms added to the page tomorrow so it is more clear on first glance.
