    Very good for practicing your accent
    I really like the way there are many different voices, so that you feel as though you are meeting different people in different situations.

    More as tips for travelers
    More as tips for travelers rather than course.

    Impossible
    Terrible quality recordings of people speaking Italian, and they speak way too fast. You'd think they would slow down slightly to make it possible for the listener to learn...anything.

    Lost about 15 seconds in.
    Having a decent grasp of French and a little Spanish, I didn't expect to get lost so quickly! It's ridiculously fast, and they don't repeat. Certainly not meant for learning. I got lost after Ciao. Wow!
