Default Best language CD's are by whom?

A friend recommended "Learn in the Car"

I already have Pimsleur.

I just started Spanish. My heart said French, but my mind said Spanish. My mind won out.

There are some CDs which are used by the Foreign Language Institute and are very useful. Expensive but good.

I did 70 minutes of language today. Something tells me I spend too much time driving. At this rate I'll be fluent in a month.

Are you peparing for the day when Senor Fox sends his troops across the border in a hostile manner, in order to reclaim Texas?

I've considered learning chinese, but not for the same reasons as MW.

I've not looked in earnest yet, as they are much harder to come by then French and Spanish. I've found a couple of decent websites, but having something in the car would be ideal for my 3 mile drive into work. I just might get 1 word a day that way.

If anyone has any good recommendations for learning CDs, I'd appreciate it.
