    I used to ignoring the "keyframes every x-seconds" and all the other mistic settings. Now, I use them in every work I do. Great stuff, Aaron. You're the man!

    Looks like a must have.....any chance of selling it as a digital download as an alternative to DVD? Either way I will probably end up buying this.

    Hi,

    I ship single DVDs First Class U.S. Mail all the time for under $2.00. You guys are charging almost $7.00. I'll bet you would sell way more DVDs if you didn't inflate your shipping cost. I would love to get this DVD but WILL NOT pay $7.00 for shipping. Oh well for me.
