I have started to import the dialogues from the FrenchPod podcasts no. 1 to 107 (Until now you will find 27 podcasts.).
I downloaded them some years ago when they were open to everybody.
@PierreM
Thank you for copying a part of the terms & conditions of FrenchPod.com.
The tiny asterisk (*) after the word “laws” refers to an important footnote:
“*FrenchPod lessons 1-107 only: MP3 lesson content is licensed under a Creative Commons 3.0 Unported license.”
You need to understand the history of the Chinese-/French-/Spanish-/Italian-Pod podcasts.
In the beginning, all podcasts (not the scripts, etc.) were published under a Creative Commons 3.0 Unported license.
Later they changed the license, but only for the podcasts that were published after a certain date. They did not change the license of the old podcasts - that is the reason for the footnote today.
You may have a look at the archived version of Frenchpod.com’s terms as of Aug. 22, 2008: http://bit.ly/cJaFam (via wayback machine of archive.org). You read: “The 64kbps podcast lesson MP3 files are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.”
