It is not rubbish. It is still a valuable tool for learning. Anyone who used Pimsleur before starting Russian in University was miles ahead of those who didn't. And those who didn't use it had the worst pronunciation in class ever. They were unbearable. I have heard speak, third year Russian students that had never listened to a CD that sounded like they were speaking complete babble, even though they knew all the right words.
