[LM_NET] HIT: Learning Media of America cheap DVDs

[Marcia Dressel <dressel@OSCEOLA.K12.WI.US>]

Most of you said that grandpa is right - "you get what you pay for" = save your 
money. 
Of those with experience, about 3 of you said a few were useful -but no glowing 
reviews.  Hit and miss at best.  
One person said that some were Wisconsin Educational Media productions!
 
Thanks,
marcia 
 
 
original question:
 
I just got a catalog of free DVDs on school topics from Learning Media of America 
out of Las Vegas.
www.LMOFA.com <http://www.lmofa.com/> 
"only 4.95 each to cover shipping and handling."
 
I did briefly visit website but don't see any video snippets to preview.. :(
 
Could they possibly be of any value?  Grandpa would be telling me "you get what you 
pay for" but I wanted to know if anybody out there has had any actual visual 
contact with these items to know if I could fill a couple media gaps with some of 
them - for only $4.95 (grin)
