I had a 3-month trial of Pluralsight and liked it, but couldn't justify it on top of Safari Books Online for personal use. For MOOCs EdX for me is by far the best. Content from real institutions with real reputations that they won't allow to be sullied by poor quality, and you pay only if you need/want a certificate at the end.

Pluralsight has been my favorite training platform for some time now, luckily my company bought my subscription. Speed controls on video (typically do 1.5-2x speed) and ability to download a series to your mobile device. I like all the instructors I've come across.

Being able to watch at double speed is one of the main selling points of online video tutorials/MOOCs. Saves so much time not having to travel to the course location and then also getting the info twice as fast as natural pace.

The problem with Pluralsight is that you can't buy individual courses..that I know of.

The problem I have with pluralsight is the random courses you get with your visual studio subscription.

They used to have 6 free months of Pluralsight, and then went down to 3 free months of everything if you just signed up for Visual Studio Code/Azure/...whatever that is.
