    Hi all,

    I've been thinking that I'd like to get some more listening practice done with my Japanese. I've got a 2CD set that came with a book I've used but I'd love some fresh material. I'm thinking really more towards the beginners end of skill level - any suggestions on CDs etc I could buy?

    The Pimsleur course (3 levels of 30 lessons each) is a good first contact with Japanese but it is expensive.

    A good alternative, and cheaper (even free) are some sites which offer free japanese pods. Check these:

    Maybe you find more in google. Let us know if you find a good one.
