A lot of things you only learn because the recorded phrases stick in your head and help you understand the contained grammar.
I do believe that the recordings are essential though. The word count has been pretty consistently 15-20 new words per lesson, not counting new ways of using old vocabulary. Other courses may teach you the same grammar (unlikely but possible), but with a lot less input and a lot less vocabulary. I'm really wondering what they will teach for the remaining 40+ lessons. Right now I'm on lesson 56 and I'm amazed at the amount of things I've learned already - all the noun classes, all the tenses, the passive, the conjunctive and even a suffix that turns words into their opposite.
