Macromedia virtual learning

I found these lessons to be very dull and boring. All some of them were was text on a page that provided guidance on how to do a certain method in a certain program. They also required you to download the program, which you had to pay for to download. It can however, offer flexibility of when you want to learn that normal traditional learning cannot. However, it would be very hard to get personal help, as there is no one you can just go to and ask for help, instead you have to post a message on a forum, and hope for a reply.
