The site works for me. Maybe they have higher traffic than usual? They're also doing a sale:

We have paused our daily free eBook giveaway whilst we reduced prices for all of eBooks and Videos to just $5. Don't worry, it will be back in the new year.

I bought the Fanatical Cyberlink Software Bundle, which includes a CyberLink PowerDirector Udemy Course. The coupon seems generic, so you should be able to grab it for free here:

PowerDirector 15 - Video Editing for PC Users
https://www.udemy.com/powerdirector/?couponCode=FANATICALEXCLUSIVE

Since I couldn't use my coupon for the "PhotoDirector 7 - Photo Editing Made Easy" course from the "Humble Software Bundle: Video & Photo Editing presented by Cyberlink" bundle because they decided it had to expire, I don't feel bad by sharing this new code.
