This is typically how these summits or conferences work, with one
caveat. Most only have the videos available for 24 hours (usually 9 am
to 9 am EST). Then, of course, they want to sell you the VIP pass for
$47-67. Sometimes the VIP passes include instant access to the videos
and other times you just have lifetime access after the summit. You
usually get bonus material, too.
The organizing summit I sent info on had as a VIP perk audio only
versions of the sessions. This is why I passed it along as that
hopefully means that the free sessions are very accessible.
I have attended a lot of summits and yes, to get freebies from most of
the presenters you have to provide your email (I have a separate email
for things like this) to get the freebie. Sometimes it will be sent by
email and other times they send you a link by email and then you have to
download from their google drive. Accessibility varies among the summits
and even the presenters with in the summit.
So, if you are ever interested in one, go ahead and try it. You can
always skip over the parts of the emails where they tell you why buying
the VIP pass is so great. I have never purchased one yet.

PS If you are financially able, it is a good idea to support them so
that they continue to have free versions for those that really can't
afford it.
