Or now to be watched on Youtube via this thread
Softimage XSI 4 "Production Series" DVD set on FileFactory for download. (Animating, Modeling/Texturing, Rendering & Concepts, Simulation)
Or now to be watched on YouTube via this thread.
Softimage XSI 5 "First Contact" & "Tips and Tricks" Video DVD's on FileFactory

According to the FileFactory policy, these files will stay available as long as they have a certain download ratio. So it will be up to you!! ;)
