Hi!

Thanks for your work. It’s good and useful thing. Just got 2 cents from me…

Please don’t tied the videos/music/materials with iTunes as you’re forcing the user to use it. Just normal links to download the stuff is much more usefull and user friendly. I can’t use them right now as I can’t install the iTunes ;_( Also all linux users won’t be able to use it. IIRC there’s no iTunes for Linux.
There’s plenty of other reasons why not to tie media in iTunes… starting from that it’s usually blocked by companies firewalls and so on. I believe there’s plenty of alternatives for iTunes nowadays. Just normal links works great and everywhere.

The next… well… if you’re learning on the fly… can I suggest you the other setting to compress MP3. Compressing MP3 there should be 2 very fundamental options. a) CBR (constant bit rate) and b) VBR (variable bit rate). VBR is much much better than CBR as very complex algorithm analyze the audio and tweaks the compression so that the music sounds the best at the smallest file.

The 720p version is much bigger (about 100MB+) and is available on request.

Could you please elaborate about how you specifically define your HD videos?

I downloaded the 70 MB file with .m4v extension by clicking on download button. Is this the 720p file you refer to above? Or is HD video much larger?

Thanks!

WOOOOOOOOOW. I’m loving the new look. Great looking site, new podcasts, and a pretty instructor. Don’t get me wrong, the mid-west chicas were cute. But California girls truly make me miss home. Now I need to get one of those…HD camcorder

Great catch Anthony!

Ooops. I just realized that I complimented your gf. (Facebook). The only thing better than a good gf is a good salsa gf.

Beautiful! And the video is nice too. The (HD) video quality is surpassed only by that of the instruction. Please, sir, may I have another…

Yay, back to the roots! Brings back memories of when I first started learning how to dance salsa from this site. And in HD too? Niice.
