I have a suspicion this can be prohibitively expensive, especially when there are many parallel sessions. For conferences online, sites like Techtalks often offer some presentations, and you can (for example) find the NAACL 2013 talks there.</div>

><br>> Dear Corpora Members<br>> Being a student of linguistics and a member of this mailing list, I receive a number of conference calls and announcements every week. These conferences are free as well as paid. Now that Internet and communication (specially media like Youtube) are so popular and cheap, I was wondering whether it is possible to provide conference proceedings (key speakers' addresses etc.) online. The idea must have been there in other minds and I might be ignorant of appropriate website(s)/ link(s) where some of such (video/ audio) proceedings are available.<br>
