So you're making that great first bold step to learn Spanish and have been told that Spanish learning CDs are the way to go
. They certainly are one of the best ways to learn Spanish but is it the perfect choice.
Well in answer to that particular question I would say five years ago it was the perfect choice but maybe today the perfect choice would be an accelerated learning online course. The real perfect solution would be one that could mail you the CDs but give you an immediate download to your computer. However why wait for the mail? If you are able to download the perfect Spanish program why not just burn the audio CDs for use in the car or iPod.
However depending on the course a lot of the CDs today are really VCD or DVDs in that they are interactive and allow you to interact. Some more basic packages have audio only and in this case it would obviously be great to have a download or CD for when your are on the move.
Now if your serious about learning Spanish I don't really think there is a perfect choice between Spanish learning CDs and Online Spanish products the most important thing is you get the learning product that is right for you and will help you learn the language as best and as quickly as possible.
So in conclusion it doesn't matter if Spanish learning CDs are the perfect choice today and in reality it probably isn't the most important thing is to do your internet research and find that program that suits you best and get started and be speaking Spanish within three months.
