I don't learn very well through audio so the explanations given with the material are really only a supplement to the important stuff, which is what is actually written on the board. Also, I tend to stop paying attention if I'm not actively engaging through note scribbling.
On a side note, when you're writing down what he's writing, you get the opportunity to jump and try things before he does them, giving you the chance to discover the odd thing or two right before you official have it taught to you. I think there's a lot of value in that as well.
