I did more research and it's a legit learning process. The vid I believe is just promoting a very basic kit. There's another website that has a lot more to offer, but cost way more of course.

Not sure, but the web address in the video is wrong. It should end with "special-offer" instead of sale. If you use the website in the video, you won't get there.
Read the fine print: † Pimsleur Rapid Fluency Purchase Program: One month after you receive your Quick & Simple you'll begin receiving 30 day trial copies of advanced Pimsleur courses in the language you selected. Each course is yours to try for 30 days. You'll receive a new course once every 60 days. For each course you keep we'll bill you in four monthly payments of $64. Remember, there's never an immediate obligation to buy any course because of the 30-day trial period provided with each shipment. And you may cancel future shipments at any time by calling 1-877-802-5283. See Key Details. |

Yea I saw that. I just want to speak and understand spanish. I don't care about reading/writing it.
I guess I'll have to Rrrrrrrrr a program. Rosetta is stupid priced. I tried livemocha but it's just rosetta/classes. I dont care about reading. |

I'd be interested if it were a complete kit. I'm not big on the "only $10" thing, listen, you'd spend a lot more money on other silly ideas/methods/classes.... just gimme the whole thing up front so I can see if I want to really invest my money in such a product.

Get dropped in the slums of Sao Paulo and I bet you're fluent in Portuguese in two weeks.
Or dead.
