Finally, I have some time to write about my experience with Courserian
Back in my day I had to manually download the lesson videos to watch them later. It's like ekianjo read my mind or something.
One of the things I like the most about Courserian is that it not only downloads the videos but also subtitles and lecture materials available... this is VERY helpful and will allow me to follow more courses, and learn a lot more stuff.
Video playback is not perfect, even with SMPlayer 2, but I guess it's just that MP4 videos usually don't get along very well with the Pandora. Also, if I click the Update all courses option, it doesn't work.
Some feature suggestions for future versions:
- Ability to choose the download directory, and to load courses not only from the app data folder (so you can have a SD card only for courses)
- Download/Update in the background (while watching some of your courses)
- Better management for downloads (limit the speed, pause/resume, choose exactly which lesson to download, etc)
- A nicer interface in general, especially for the course library.
I recommend Coursera courses to everybody, my personal favorite is
A Brief History of Humankind, although it's over now, I don't know if you can still watch the lectures, anyhow you can register for a future session.

Thanks a lot
ekianjo, Courserian is awesome already.
