Review of LiveMocha.com
Web, Limited pronunciation scores, Free, ★★★
This is free and similar to Book2, plus pictures, with 30 languages. You cannot suppress spelling in the target language, and the pictures are often not self-explanatory, so you cannot learn just by ear, and you cannot slow the audio.
An interesting feature is that you can record your pronunciation for volunteer native speakers to review, though this is no substitute for the immediate and constant feedback on Byki and Pronunciator.
It has a mix of words and phrases and includes numbers to 20. (There are more advanced "Active" courses in 5 languages for $10/month.) It does not offer downloads.
They teach in 12 languages: Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish.
