Book Reviews of Japanese I - 3rd Ed.: Learn to Speak and Understand Japanese with Pimsleur Language Programs (Comprehensive)

Book Review: Copy Protected
Summary: 2 Stars

The course is great in essence, but there are two major trade-offs:

1. I was unable to rip the whole set into iTunes - and put it on my iPod. That was very annoying! (But, maybe, that was just me being unable.)

2. Some syllables are difficult to distinguish (is it ending with n or with m?) when you have nothing in written.

Besides that, I really enjoyed the course, and I'd recommend it when you can overcome said two issues.
