Hi guys I wanted to let you know that over at 3D Buzz Buzz is publishing free training cd's and he also covers the shipping. He has produced so far Intro to Max, and Intro to Maya and currently in production is Intro to SOFTIMAGE|XSI. The quality of the training is much higher than others I have seen and it is free with no strings attatched. Check it out!!

There are strings attached. You're actually subscribing to a video magazine, which you must later cancel or get charged for. The following comes from the registration form on 3dbuzz.com.

"Remember - this is for a MONTHLY subscription for each application that you have selected above. If you decide that you no longer are interested in the CDs, please remove your entry so that I'm not just throwing money away. Thank you!"

I've personally received 2 so far and he is not willing to take monetary donations the only thing he has accepted so far are spools of CD's. If you know anything about Buzz he's all about teaching people and giving. He's constantly looking for sponsers and wants people to spread the word(which I am doing :) ). Anyway a person has nothing to lose to try it out and if you end up unsubscribing great no harm no foul. The reason he doesn't want to waste money is because it is all coming out of his pocket.
