what's the different between the book photoreading and the CDs set? if i simply want to learn photoreading, will it be okay to have the book only? what extra technique i can get from the CDs set.

hey =)
i have the CD package which also contains the book. I ordered photoreading ages ago and 'photoread' the book but didn't actually read it in the normal way coz i had the Cds. Recently i've started up tryin again to photoread and i've been reading the book. i find it contains details that i didn't pick up off the Cds... i don't know if thats coz they wern't on there or i just missed them but i seem to be having more success referring to the book.
Basically it seems to me that the Cds are an audio version (although not word for word) of the book. I guess the advantage of them is you can listen while driving n stuff... also one of the CDs "Photoread your own book" takes you step by step through the process each time u wanna photoread, although as the book suggests you could just make ur own recording of these instructions. The other good thing bout the CD set is you get 'memory supercharger' which is a really great CD...(not essential tho n you could always buy it seperately if u wanted...) Basically i guess the CD set is superior coz it contains the CDs plus the book (if its the same package as it was when i bought it) but i'm guessing there's quite a price difference between the two? I think that the photoreading book along with this forum would be sufficent to teach you how to photoread.

The book has everything you need to know. The CDs are a teaching set. It really is a bad idea just to listen to them You need to follow the instructions otherwise you'll miss the how too of the process. Once you've done the course you can re-listen while driving or doing something else to pick up the extra ideas. They are explained differently than in the book.

Either way if you want to learn PhotoReading you must DO. You cannot learn it by just reading or listening.
