ive heard it works quite well, although you can consider training yourself, that way you don't have to spend so much money.

I have the perfect pitch course and wereworm has the relative pitch course. They do work but don't expect that you are just going to get perfect pitch. It is an incredible amount of frustrating work.

i didnt know what any of this was, so i looked into it to see what it was. basically is it being able to recognise a note and name it ect. i believe i have been able to do this just by the sheer amount of time i have played, but in a kind of different way maybe. when i hear a note, i can corrospond it to a note in my head from a tune a know, and as i know the tune, i know what note it is.
on from that, with reference to the tone and colours he describes, a note on any non percusive instument is made up of thousands of harmonics, with the dominant series of harmonics forming the note. how ever, with percusive instruments, the best example being a bell, you get one pure harmonic, so the note 'chimes' instead of 'rings' as there is not the interplay between several thousand harmonics.
its what i reckon anywy

That's a pretty good method Dr. Rocker, I do the same thing. For example, if I wanna remember what E sounds like, I sing 'Pull Me Under' (Dream Theater) to myself, or whatever.

Associating pitches & intervals with songs is a crutch, unfortunately. It's helpful when you're starting your ear training, but that kind of association adds an extra step to the whole recognition process (so Burge doesn't recommend it). If you want to recognize these things quicker & more reliably, you'll need to associate pitches & intervals directly by their name whenever you hear them. When you hear a low E, it's a lot faster to just think "E" than "Orion...E". Like nudeedude said, it does take a LOT of work and persistence before it pays off. You won't magically get musical ears from just passively listening to these courses. You'll have to practice the exercises Burge gives you until you've mastered them.

same with me dr. rocker, except it can be confusing sometimes, because if you cant place the name of the song, youre screwed.
