It's a new and exciting way to deliver music instruction DVDs (From Homespun, AcuTab and Mel Bay) to you quickly, safely and inexpensively, using a start-of-the-art media system called the MOD Machine. On Demand allows you to get your lessons anytime you want them, delivering high-quality video directly to your computer. All you need is a high-speed connection and you'll be on your way.
If you've already purchased a product through the On Demand system, no need to download the catalog again. Simply launch the On Demand catalog from your hard drive, browse for the downloadable title that interests you and check out from there.
On Demand offers many advantages over books, DVDs, online courses and even classroom training:

|
Unlike DVDs or books, courses you order through On Demand are delivered instantly. No waiting for UPS, FedEx or U.S. mail deliveries. No shipping and handling charges. Never out of stock. No lost or damaged shipments. With a DSL line or cable modem, you can start learning within a few minutes of ordering- even nights, weekends or holidays!
Far superior to DVDs or web-based video, the courses you purchase from On Demand download to your hard drive so you can access them anywhere, anytime, in just a few clicks, whether you are connected to the internet or not. And unlike DVDs, you do not have to have a DVD in your drive to learn. You can take lessons anywhere you can take your laptop and your instrument! |
Ever wanted Chris Thile to come over to your house and teach you how to play his style? Ever wanted to jam with Butch Baldassari? On Demand is the next best thing. Take a lesson after breakfast or in the middle of the night. Jump to any tune or part of the course with one click. Put your virtual instructor on pause anytime and take time to experiment with a technique and practice a particularly tasty lick. You have total control over the learning experience.
The MOD Machine offers security in purchasing no browser or phone call can match. Your credit card information is transmitted only once, highly encrypted, to Authorize.net, one of the most respected and secure payment processors. |
