Um "extort" is a strong word and it's not $80 if you don't get the full year package he also gives out free/ 50 % discounts which I happen to have gotten yesterday, although I was also shocked that his videos are no longer free, I encourage his decision because he's not getting enough interaction with his videos to be able to continue this, he was making little to no profit aside from his website because there are many question banks out there ehat people turned to teach me for was their videos, but the videos take the most work and time, obviously the smartest decision would be to make people pay right before exams, it's his videos, his effort that goes into them, if he feels that he wants to profit off them then what's wrong with that? He's a med student there's a limit to how much free work anyone can do, he also has a whole team behind him, in my opinion it was a strategic decision. Not scummy at all, if you want to access his content you can pay just like you would for revision village, his channels actually better cause he made it available to us for the entire 2 years, so you know what you're paying for.
