I notice you no longer link to Chinese Pod as you used to and that you’ve added a link to Chinese Learn Online. Is there some aspect of that service you think is better than CPod’s? I hadn’t heard of Chinese Learn Online before.

Mark, I removed the link to Chinese Pod mainly because they discontinued their affiliate scheme. I was never an active user of it anyway. The link to Chinese Learn Online was mainly because it was an informative blog post rather than an endorsement of their podcast.
