Hi toianw, yep they've been keeping me busy the last year or so! Been a bit snowed with work the last month, but hoping to get back into the transcript groove soon. I try to keep them as a weekend treat :)

PS: re "We did announcements through twitter and our blog" I missed that too. Why not announce it through the site directly? Not a disaster, but I hope you could draw a useful conclusion for the future.

Hi guys,
If you've just subscribed, there's two things that we might need to look at:
1. Subscription lessons are found in the "Self-Study" area rather than the course area.
2. If you've just updated your subscription settings, you might not see immediate c...

It's not that it is less clear because if you think about, the word "already" almost always implies something that has happene...
As some others have stated, the past few weeks the new lessons load after synching but the Listen (download of the audio files), Dialogue,Vocabulary and Expansion tabs are greyed out. Nothing happens when you click it.

Thanks. I subscribed to all the intermediate C43-C116 ones, and they look much easier than the business-related intermediate lessons I was struggling through.
