There are a lot of online bookstores. But anyway, take Amazon.com for
example. Here is their payment types they accept page:

Not terribly restricting.

hmmm.. if you look up computer lessons on various topics, sometimes
you find that you can get videos, or CD's with lessons on programming
language x or whatever topic. Maybe it might say live videos from some
expert, or interactive lessons.  So maybe you find it on a website or
in a magazine. But, you always seemed to find this in one of two
forms. Either it was real cheap, or it was terribly expensive.  Like
maybe $800 US for a few CD's, or a few VHS videos.  And often, it
seemed like it could just be covering the same topics in some book.
And then, other times you might locate something like 1001 interactive
lessons on C++ on a CD, plus 200 other topics, CD for $10.

You might suppose that there's stuff out there of that type that would
benefit some, differently than reading prose. But more often it's too
much to spend to find out what is out there may actually consist of.
