I think the most fascinating thing on iTunes is the "iTunes U" part, where you can get sound/video recordings of hundreds of courses from several universities/education centers all around the world (you can find all these items through the net, but in "iTunes U" its all grouped and packaged in a wonderful way).
These days I am listening the Benjamin Polak's Game Theory lesson at Yale (at long shuttle hours to/from work) and I can easily say he is a great instructor. He talks about all main topics through the courses in an easily understandable way with interesting examples that takes your attention immediately. And also he has a great sense of humor, don't be surprised if you find yourself laughing loudly while listening his lessons.
Last words, if you are interested in "Game Theory" dont miss this chance.

Nerds over focus. I guess that's the problem. But it's precisely the ability to narrow-focus that makes them so good at code writing: one line at a time, one line in a strand of millions.
