Thank you for listening. :dogeza: If you subscribe to the feed you'll get almost ALL lessons for free moving forward plus podcasts released within the last 3 weeks. A basic subscription will get you access to all of the audio and PDFs. Peter-san, thanks for the feed back. Again, our position on this is that subscribing to the feed you get all the audio for free. The people with us from the beginning should have all the audio for free. :wink: In regards to all about money, I can't agree with that statement. It's more about bringing better content such as video material and more interesting ideas. ブッキーさん、今年もよろしくおねがいします！ :dogeza:

To answer some questions: タチコマさん、one Kanji per lesson, but we'll have related words. We'll be soliciting feedback on the videos, so please keep it coming. Intermediates will get a new host for Upper Intermediate, who will keep you on your toes. :) Also, we're hoping to have a nice surprise in the second half of 2009. :) The blogs will actually be a bit shorter, but they should be much more challenging. Thank you again everyone! 良いお年を！Happy and Healthy New Year!:grin: Mina-san, ありがとうございます！ :dogeza:
