In April 2021, we acquired Strive Talent, Inc. (Note 3), which generated $8.0 million of intangible assets that are included in the tables above.

Our intangible assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset. The range of remaining estimated useful lives and weighted-average amortization period over which we are amortizing the major categories of finite-lived intangible assets at August 31, 2022 were as follows:


Category of Intangible Asset	Range of Remaining Estimated Useful Lives	Weighted Average Original Amortization Period
Acquired content	4 to 5 years	24 years
License rights	5 to 7 years	26 years
Customer lists	2 to 4 years	11 years
Acquired technology	7 years	6 years
Trade names	4 years	5 years
Non-compete agreements and other	1 to 5 years	3 years

Our aggregate amortization expense from finite-lived intangible assets totaled $5.3 million, $5.0 million, and $4.6 million for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. Amortization expense from our intangible assets over the next five years is expected to be as follows (in thousands):

We completed a Step Zero assessment as of August 31, 2022 and concluded there were no indicators of impairment and we do not have any accumulated impairment charges against the carrying value of our goodwill. At each of August 31, 2022 and 2021, goodwill was allocated to our segments as shown below (in thousands):
