The audio quality is still decent and, more importantly, this documentary is very informative; not only regarding the life and work of Friedrich Hayek, but also with respect to the economic/political history of the 20th century.
If anyone wishes to understand the state the world is in today, a good place to start would be to find out how we got here.

'Friedrich August von Hayek was an Austrian-British economist and philosopher, who worked in the areas of philosophy of science, political philosophy, the free will problem, and epistemology. His life’s work, for which he won a Nobel Prize in Economics in 1974, illuminated the nature and significance of spontaneous order.'

"The worship of the state is the worship of force. There is no more dangerous menace to civilization than a government of incompetent, corrupt, or vile men. The worst evils which mankind ever had to endure were inflicted by governments."
- Ludwig von Mises

"When the government is quite unobtrusive,
People are indeed pure.
When the government is quite prying,
People are indeed conniving."
- Lao Tzu

"Many of the greatest things man has achieved are not the result of consciously directed thought, and still less the product of a deliberately coordinated effort of many individuals, but of a process in which the individual plays a part which he can never fully understand."
- Friedrich von Hayek
