We have been using the Great Courses. I have to agree about Brier's courses my DS LOVES him. He did Pharaohs course in two days because I made him stop. Bob Brier loves what he does and it does come through in his lectures. Arthur T Benjamin as well (Joy of Math).

Yes do wait for the sales I get them for as low as 20.00 and at this point, since it's my first year Homeschooling I have really done well in the collection part.

Thinkwell (John Hopkins) also has their courses on CD if you want them that way.

I need a GOOD Physical Science program that doesn't weigh too much on the creation side.
