Reviews
This is a really good review of lighting concepts, and the author spends a good amount of time showing examples and talking through practical tips and info. This is not aimed at any particular software — it is more like a seminar on lighting, so just be aware of that.

The tutorial is good. Well-explained with examples. Provided good insight about fundamentals.
The audio is not great. The narrator speaks so slowly (her voice not speed) that you have to turn you volume to the fullest. Furthermore, the audio also has a constant machine-ish sound which is quite irritating. In a nutshell, good content but lacks good audio.
