It sucks as the best way to BEGIN to learn a language as you go straight into vocabulary with very little grammar and zero basic conversation.
So most ppl give up as after 6 months all they know is "the boy is under the table" etc.
Pimsleur is the best IMHO.
Rosetta Stone has a free online version if you are a member of a local library in the USA.
As a way to expand your vocab, I think it's awesome.
