Greetings, linguaphiles!
This is my first post on the forum, although I've been dipping in for a while. It was here that I first learned of the French In Action series. I've managed to get hold of the videos and have just bought the textbooks and workbooks.
I've been able to acquire some of the audio files from the interweb but this page only seems to contain the text work up, not the aural exercises.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get the whole of the audio materials for this course on the net? Apologies if this question has been done to death - I've searched but haven't found anything to answer my question.
Cheers!

Thanks so much for replying, Will! I'm really enjoying the videos (although I'm only onto number 8) but I'm sure the extra audio and workbook exercises will be a huge benefit.
Cheers!

Well,
Apparently, the scm.edu site is now asking for user/password. Anyone know of any other educational site to listen to FIA audio?
Thanks in advance.

Magnum, we can't get the complete FIA audio from this link, just the text workup.
Each FIA lesson have:
- one video
- its corresponding audio
- the "mise en ouvre" (where you repeat the sentences, those form the text workup)
- 30-40 audio exercises (aural exercises, explaining grammar, vocabulary, drills).

You can find all that audio on usenet, look for a thread named "A place to share FSI - seeding unnecessary" for full instructions. Unfortunately, bandwidth is not free, I use paypal to buy 10GB blocks of downloads for US$5 a pop, and the FIA audio is about 6GB.
It's a lot cheaper than buying it, and you can grab the public domain Italian and Spanish DLI courses with your left over download quota.
Oh, and please refrain from downloading the illegal courses, blah blah blah.
