Not sure where to post this. Apologies if it should not go here. A couple more resources for Latin and Ancient Greek that differ, I hope, from the resources already posted.

1. Alex Lee: Latin, Greek, Classes, Technology, Etc. http://home.uchicago.edu/~alexlee/academics/index.html
Includes both general resources and nuts-and-bolts stuff about learning Latin and/or Ancient Greek. And as well is included stuff a bit geeky or semi-geeky. You'll probably find much of it elsewhere on the net, but some of it I had never seen before (e.g., Woodcock, New Latin Syntax (bolchazy, duckworth)).

2. Hiberna Caroli Raetici http://hiberna-cr.wikidot.com/start
Various resources and links for Latin learners.

In addition to the above, The Great Courses offers an introduction to Latin. While the regular prices are rather expense, this publisher frequently announces sales with prices reduced as much as 70%.

Latin 101
http://www.thegreatcourses.com/courses/latin-101-learning-a-classical-language.html?listid=1&pfm=UpsellSlider&poas=3&recloc=pdp

The Latin 101 course is often offered on sale in combination with this publisher's course for Greek 101.

How do you like these courses? Many people on this forum tend to think that lecture-style learning isn't that productive, but for clarification, they can prove useful.

That thread is worth reading if for no other reason then to encounter the word "amuse-gueule"! :D
Nicely done, Speakeasy, and a nice follow-up with it by Elexi.

Listening / Recordings
A couple YouTube channels with recordings in Serafín-certified good pronuntiatio restituta:

ThePrinceSterling

Latinitium
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxS3m8 ... DD9Nic1YOg

Modern poetry
Marc Moskowitz's collection of 20th/21st century Latin poetry should not go unnoticed either:

Alexlee's site on uchicago.edu is gone. Here's the Wayback Machine link.
