Library DVDs first
Before subscribing to $20/month Wondrium, check your library — most carry The Great Courses DVDs. Free with library card. Same professors, same content. If your library has limited selection or you watch heavily, then $20/month is reasonable. Some seniors auto-renew Wondrium for years and never run out of new content.
